Trying to find information about the footballer Nobby Stiles. Are there any of his relations out there?

He was related to my grandfather somehow (possibly via his aunt). My grandfathers family (Rowbottom) came from Collyhurst, Manchester.

My mother was called Violet Amelia Stiles,she told me that Norbert was a member of her family and was from the Stiles, who were funeral directors.The shop is still called Stiles and is on the road to Oldham from Manchester,but is now part of Coop Funerals.
She came from Manchester and mentioned Collyhurst.
Please mail back for more information.

The posting is almost two years old - Angela probably won't look at this.

Send her a PM - if her e-mail hasn't changed, she'll be notified.

This is an old thread, Christine.

As Flick told you four years ago, your best bet is to send Angela a private message - click on her name at the top of her post, and send a message.
If she still has the same email address, GenesReunited will notify her of your message, and she can reply to you if she wishes.

If she does reply, GR will send you an email to let you know.

If you've already tried that, and she hasn't replied, then you may have to accept she's not going to.

Old genealogists never die.....they just lose their census.
