Dear List

I am looking for anyone with connections to my aunt, Agnes MANGAN (nee HERBERT) who was born in Wigan, Lancs. c1921, to John HERBERT, and Wilhelmina PENDLEBURY.

Agnes married in the 1940s, and moved to the Midlands (1940s or '50s) and had two daughters (my cousins) Pauline and Barbara, in the mid-1940s. She died c1988.

Looking forward to hearing from anyone with connections to Agnes, Pauline, or Barbara.

Yours sincerely

Had a look in the 1984-2004 death index for Agnes Mangan, nothing listed. There was however, this:
Agnes Dorothy Mongan, b.22.01.1925 D.Nov 1988 age 63, Manchester district, Lancashire.

Hi Ann

Many thanks for this information!

The surname could well have been misspelt (ie "Mongan" instead of MANGAN) but I'm not entirely happy with the birth-date; I think 1925 is a bit too late to have been my aunt. (She was the second of three children, and the youngest was born c1924).

But if this entry is the only sort-of-likely one, then it starts me looking for her in Manchester, instead of in the Midlands.

Once again, many thanks for taking the time to look this up for me.

Yours sincerely
Deidre Herbert.
