Rhoda's story ... continued

Rhoda was married from Armley Grange View in 1950. Rhoda and Jack lived there after they were married. My husband John was born there. They moved out just before John's sister Alison was born in 1956 but she too was born in Armley Grange View (Jack took Rhoda there when she started "feeling funny"). My husband John had a second home there and called in most days on his way home from school. John Adamthwaite was a typical Yorkshire man and had little time for religion, hated the Archbishop of Canterbury, Dr Ramsey, and the Chancellor lan Callaghan for putting up the tax on whisky. He was however, very generous to his wife and family. They were a very close couple -even though they often sat in separate rooms in the afternoon (Maggie would get up on a morning, put a mobcap on and do all her chores then get washed and dressed up for the afternoon). When Maggie died in December 1971, John said he had nothing left to live for and he died 12 weeks later.
