Hi,
Casalguidi asked: Where were your gran & grandad and/or their families living c1913?
It may also help to look at your family's occupation - was there a connection to an engineering Ironfoundry for instance which may explain the 'I' in the football team's name. Failing that it was a team representing a company you'll have to look at the surrounding villages/areas which start with 'A' or 'I'. Perhaps using the radius distance facility on GENUKI would give a clue to which areas were within walking/cycling distance of their home ground. Good luck on finding the latter place, which quite often was a farmer's field where players had to shovel off a few cowpats before the game commenced:-))
