Death Notes
Jane Cooke reports: "I also have the death cert for Sarah Robinson nee Mather. She died on 05.06.1962. at Birch Hill Hospital, Wardle (Rochdale). Apparently it happened just as my mum and dad got together. The family was in Scotland at the time, my grandparents, Tom and Edna were living in Edinburgh where dad met mum. Mum didn't go to the funeral as she had only just got to know dad."
Death: Wardle, Littleborough, Lancaster
