I AM trying to contact friends who moved to Canada in the 1960s. They are Anne and Malcolm Horrocks. They had two children - Jacqueline (I am her godmother) was born in Bolton in 1964, and David, also born in Bolton.

Anne (nee Young) lived with her parents and her brother in Farnworth. The family ran a corner shop.

Malcolm, before his marriage, lived with his parents and a sister, also in a shop, on Chorley Old Road.

In their early married life they lived in Farnworth and then moved to Little Lever before emigrating when the children were small.

Anne worked for a veterinary surgeon on Chorley Old Road, and that is where we met and became close friends.

Unfortunately, however, after she moved to Canada, I only saw her on one occasion when she came home for a visit.

I can be contacted on 01204 668602
