information :
"This
is the Goodyear's works team from some time late twenties. The
only person I recognise is the goalie , (James) Bernard McHugh,
my grandfather . The Pattingham connection came about because
Goodyear had tyre storage in Ackleton ,where he worked. The connection
got stronger when he married my grandmother,one of Joe Law's

Mary Law neé Edwards 1910
Email from Mac (Anthony) McHugh 27.2.2012 - "This is
my great grandmother, John Edward's daugther and Albert's sister.
Don't be deceived by her elegant appearance. She was every inch

homemade parsnip wine could ' take the legs out of Hercules'."
