A big detached house next to the main gates of the big park there named Brookdale Park. Sue's only memory of it was the Hallway. It was a bit like the Bronte Vicarage at Haworth, with rooms either side of the hall. It was demolished by the Council as it also had a big garden and the council wanted it for the park (or so they said).

According to Lil's Birthday Book, Lawrence Doxey was born 26/11/1914 Hulmes Road/Droylsden Rd, Newton Heath, Manchester. The birth was registered the following quater.
Sue has her father's birth certificate which confirms the DOB is 26th November, 1915, Newton Heath, Manchester. I assume this should be 1914!
Death Notes
Died 09/07/1973 suddenly at Oldham Boundary Park Hospital
Diabetic Coma + Pneumonia, Husband of Winnie Mather, Father of Susan
Sue's father was born 26th November 1915, Newton Heath, Manchester. She has his birth Certicate as well as her Mother's. On checking through all of these she has noticed that in their upset, of her Father's passing the information, that the wrong birth year was put on the Death Certificate; it reads 1913 not 1915.
Sue's Father is not with his parents grave. He wanted to be cremated so his ashes are in Hollinwood Crem which is between Failsworth and Oldham, Lancashire.
