  • Joan Walbank 23Rd August 1940 - 27Th November 2020
    A Celebration of the Life of Joan Walbank 23rd August 1940 - 27th November 2020 Tuesday 8th December 2020 at 10.30 am St Mary and St Michael’s Roman Catholic Church, Garstang Conducted by Father Geoffrey Steel In loving memory of Joan Walbank 23rd August 1940 - 27th November 2020 Born on Shorrocks Farm, Catforth with sisters, Margaret and Kathleen. Joan was the middle daughter of Leonard and Elizabeth Moorby. Often recounting stories of her youth, most recently memories of Catforth and Woodplumpton Field days held at Bartle Hall in the 50s. Of walking from home across farms and fields to visit relatives and shops in Garstang before cars became commonplace and, when they did, it took a day to get to the Lake District. At a dance at the Old Public Hall, Preston, Joan was to meet her future husband, Bill and 2021 would have seen them celebrate 60 years of marriage. For the first year of marriage, they set up home in a caravan in her parents’ field before moving to their current home on Dimples Lane. After reading a book about an aboriginal boy named Wopsy, the house was renamed and soon became the family home. It was no surprise that Joan’s first job was in a bakery shop. One of Joan’s greatest passions was cooking and baking. Making many bakes and cakes, latterly for her grandson John’s wedding to Natalie. Cont. After the children started school, Joan became a dinner lady at St Mary and Michael’s RC Primary School, where she became known for her skills in pulling out wobbly teeth.

  • Poulton Clarkson Roadblock by James Michael Fleming © 2020
    Poulton Clarkson Roadblock by James Michael Fleming © 2020 Introduction This is a summary of my research into the Poulton and Clarkson families of Lancashire. I started this project as a search for the origins of John Poulton and his wife Elizabeth Clarkson, who arrived in Sydney NSW aboard the SS Fitzjames in 1860. Having succeeded in that aim, I then extended the research to earlier generations of their families. Family historians often find information about a person’s origins from their death certificate (which usually details their parents’ names). In the case of John Poulton, his Death Certificate is no help because the informant (who was just an orderly in the hospital where he died) did not know his parent’s names. Worse still, I have not even been able to find a death certificate for his wife Elizabeth Clarkson (who left the family many years before her husband died). This situation is known by family historians as “a roadblock”, where the normal research techniques have not provided the information required to go back into earlier history. Nevertheless, there are research approaches that can sometimes find a way around a roadblock like this. In this case, I succeeded by focusing on a fellow-traveler. Jim Fleming is a retired Customs Manager and lives on Sydney’s lower north shore. He began researching his family history in 1983 and has been a member of the Society of Australian Genealogists since then. Aside from genealogy he was enjoying travelling and singing baritone in two choirs - before COVID19 interrupted those activities. Researching: Bowen, Flowerdew, Gardner, Gordon, Grady, Hanrahan, Jolliffe, Kemp, Kessey, Murphy, Poulton, Press and so many more!

Dear James I write further to your request from PINS for additional highway advice for the above appeal sites. Lancashire County Council as Local Highway Authority (LHA) is responsible for providing and maintaining a safe and reliable highway network. The County Council is also committed to reducing congestion and delay and improving highway links both locally and strategically. With this in mind the present and proposed traffic networks have been considered which are influenced by these proposals. Regarding cumulative effects on the M55 junction 1 – the A6 roundabout is a county road (Lancashire County Council is the LHA) and not under the jurisdiction of Highways England. The junction slip roads are the responsibility of Highways England. Cumulative Traffic Impacts Of Appeal Sites The application sites are not allocated for development within the current Preston Local Plan.
