Hi, There are no listings for C Beck or John Buckley as fruit or potatoe dealers on the 1895.1905 or 1924 Kelly's Directories. There are no listings for either of these names in the local area in the residential address Gilly |

Thanks, Gilly. I bought two postcards over the weekend, and both are close-ups, one being of a man selling vegetables standing in front of a basket which says ‘C. Beck’ and the other is of a man with his horse and cart, which clearly says ‘John Buckley, potato dealer’. The backgrounds look like local Burnley stone buildings, but perhaps they were taken in a town nearby. I will have to investigate. |

Kris, if you ask Mel to put them on here we may be able to identify where they are. |

Thanks for looking Patricia. Gloria, I sent the photos to Mel, and hopefully they will be added in the next few days (no pressure Mel). I will post the link when they are added. |

I've had a look to see if there is anything on the census but with 500 results for Lancashire, it's a bit of a needle in a haystack. |

Thanks for adding the photos Mel. Yes, it’s a needle in a haystack, but I’m up for a challenge! |
