I HAVE done some research on my ancestors and have found there was one who lived in Eccleston killed in the First World War called Samuel Whitfield. He was the son of Alice and Richard Whitfield and I found him on the St Helens war memorial.

I have spent a couple of years researching and was wondering if there were any Whitfields in St Helens who would know anything or if anyone could help.

I can be contacted on 01744 894980.
