[River Tyne Lass]

I gasped with joy when I read your post that Larry has been in contact!  Congratulations on connecting with a relation through RootsChat!  This really warms the heart.  I can feel my eyes misting over.  I am thrilled to hear of your great news.

Merry Christmas to you and Larry.

My grandmother was called Winifred Spoors before she moved to Yorkshire, and married my grandfather Ackroyd Hanson .She was born in the North East in march 1909, and she married Ackroyd Hanson and had 3 daughters.
Two of her daughters have passed away , but my aunt (Winifred's youngest) is still alive.
Winifred moved in with her youngest daughter in 1968 when Ackroyd died, and had a stroke a couple of years later, which left her housebound. She died in February 1979.She' married an older man as my grandad was born in 1888 and she was born in 1909.They lived in the village of Silsden (near Ilkley) where  most of their family still live.
We never really discussed her life in the North East ( not helped by her having a stroke when I was 5), but it was intimated that there was another family up in the NE. So I'm not sure if this is the same person, but I'm on this site because someone posted about my grandparents on a Facebook page about Silsden , so it started me on a quest to find out more.
