85 | Because of her husband Dick's unemployment, Elizabeth was forced to work. At various times she worked as a cleaner; in a fish and chip shop; in a cinema; and in hospital. After her husband's death, she would sometimes spend the summer months working in the Isle of Man, where her brother Jack lived. Elizabeth was also a bit of a gambler, but quite successful at it. Often it was her winnings that put food on the table. Her daughters had to take the cash for the bet roun to the bookie's home, but because it was illegal, they always came round to the back door to make the bet! And always had to make sure that there were no policemen around. | Singleton, Elizabeth (I1250)

93 | Catherine was known as Kitty, or sometimes Katie. She and her twin sister Minnie were born on 1 Feb 1890, in Manchester, Lancashire, UK. Kitty was somewhat backward, and behaved in a slightly odd way. This was the reason why her sister vowed never to marry but to devote herself to looking after Kitty. The girls lived with their parents during their early life, but moved to Seacombe in Wallasey, very close to the River Mersey. They lived in a large old terraced house. | Ferguson, Catherine (I140)
