That is, Blackpool, Halifax, the name Gregson and photography. The branch is my grandaunt's husbands side so not direct and most learnt from census records and family chat.<br />Anyway, I'll compile the info over the next few days and check back in.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09631771683115316585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37291817.post-16726433126716509312019-05-24T16:32:58.958+01:002019-05-24T16:32:58.958+01:00Curiosity is the guiding principal of good bloggin...Curiosity is the guiding principal of good blogging. Mr. Gregson's obit was written by someone who knew him well, I think. A photographer's studio was likely a good source of local gossip and news for a newspaper reporter. <br /><br />There is an English composer from Sunderland named Edward Gregson (1945-) whose music I know. He's written a number of pieces for brass band.<br />Mike Brubakerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13065245846262417519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37291817.post-57175475456366815652019-05-24T13:22:51.711+01:002019-05-24T13:22:51.711+01:00Ah, research!
