Hi Ashton lass .I'm also trying to find out how to private message you.
It's fantastic to hear that you are my dad's and Yvonne's cousins.
Sadly both of them have passed away in 2017 and just 9 days apart from each other. I have pictures of  your grandparents and a few of their children and also my dad and Yvonne that I can send to you .

James Alfred Rickard wife Mary Ann Rickard lived with her son Joseph earnest Rickard (my grandfather) after her husband died. This was first at Bent lanes in davyhulme and than in later life at woodlands AVE in flxton.
My dad who is Joseph earnest Rickard son remembers that his grandad James Alfred Rickard also  owned a mill and travelled to India and Africa for his materials.
