I have received this email from Kirsty Morris. If anyone can help, please reply here. I have been researching my late Granfather \'Albert J Morris\', I am hoping to set up a memorial website in his honour. He was well known in the area so if anyone has any articles, photographs or anything relating to him I will be greatly thankfull. |

Are we talking the Briercliffe area? If so, Roger may be able to help. |

Kirsty, Albert was my uncle. Nice to see that you intend to set up a memorial site for him. For those who didn't know Albert he was a well known character in the Barrowford and Nelson area. He was a local historian and inventor - he attempted the world manpowered flight record in his home-made plane, The Mayfly. He invented an ultra violet reflection system for safety in dense fog, a static powder system for stove enamelling and a new type of mousetrap. I have a lot of Albert's history papers and would be happy to help in your project - please email me. John Clayton Barrowford |

I thought the name rang a bell. Is it the same Albert Morris as the author of 'Rolling Out The Days'? |
