would like to hear from anyone who might have lived in or near Whiteley Street in Clayton during the mid 1960's. Also would like to know where (St.Willibrands ?) Catholic Church was located and if its still standing?

I am of the opinion that is more beautiful inside than out.

Susan, thank you for your information, must be the quickest reply I've ever had. Looked for the church but could only find a school of that name. I got the name from an old marriage certificate and I could hardly make out the name.

Thank you, Jeff.
