Believe it or not Walter Greaves story appears in a Memories of Barnsley publication!

I did known Walter and Bill but I dont remember Tom Daniel ( no "s" I think)personally

Dorothy Fawthrop used to dance with Tom Owen of Barnsley and her mum said in my prescence that she and Tom Daniel had (re) constructed and remembered Poverty Knocks [collected by AL Lloyd] together

Dancing at Ceilds/Barndances at Heckmondwike/Batley and Wakefield afforded the chance to sing too.

John Browell leads the Christmas sings at the Wickham and Saw nr Cleckheaton each year with often, Dave Mallinson, Roy Atkinson, Ron Darnbrough, The Twentymens, NOrrie and Brenda Spence, Trevor Charnock being the current main West Riding old folkies. Mick Haywood now being in Whitby for some years
