If you are looking for this place on a map, its a farm. The Twisling farm is about half way between Hope Mansell and Bailey Lane End (as the crow flies).

Raymond James Hale baptised 1913

Hurricane999 — Fri, 10 Nov 2017 21:23:51 +0000

Trying to find out more about Raymond James Hale baptised in 1913 at Bailey End Chapel. Mother is listed as Annie and father as Elms a Labourer. Would like to find out more about his mother 'Annie'. Could it be Annie Rook or her daughter Annie? Also have difficulty tracing Raymond James Hale in later life. Any help appreciated.
