Then there was
Grandfather Sanders who
was very keen on horse
racing. His wife Daisy (née
Yates) a very attractive
woman and mother to all those children had died before I was
born and Grandfather lived at Hurstleigh Terrace, just off Knares
borough Road, Harrogate with his second wife Lil. The family
lived previously in Starbeck.
Of mother’s family we saw even less. We knew of various
relatives in the countryside around Harrogate. We often visited
Aunt Edith Moorhouse and her family at their farm at Nidd
Bridge, near Ripley. There was a maiden Aunt from
Hampthswaite and Aunt Florrie who lived at Morecambe who
was a bit ‘batty’ but firm favourite and a popular place to visit.
