CT, there's quite a few Shellcocks still in Rotherham and I found a reference from the early 1950s to Florence and Frederick, parents of Peter Frederick Shellcock. My old history research instincts are awakened and I'll see if I can trace them to Effingham Street or a newsagents.

Thanks, Monty. I'd be interested in knowing if he's still alive. I did read something on the Shellcock family recently. A hard working bunch who opened several businesses. The mother was the driving force and then Peter's brother followed in her footsteps. They lived above the shop back in the fifties. I think many of them moved up to Scotland. The last I heard of Peter was that he either had a stall in the indoor market or worked on one. He'd be about 78 now. My sister would be 77. She had the unusual name of Jonquil...PM me if this gets a bit detailed or personal.

Will do. I didn't mention it because I wasn't sure of the relevance but the archive on Peter's parents mentioned another son, Brian.
