Thank you Roy for the http://www.music-hall-society.com/ for Music hHall sSociety. I found another too http://www.greatallied,fsnet.co.uk/index.htm for resources for researching ancestors who were actors, actresses ,music hall& vaudeville artistes,travelling showmen, Romany/Gypsy; in cicus, menageries, the bioscoppesetc tinersand tracelling tradesmen. That sounds rather comprehensive. I'll be giving it a try. have In the meantime any mention of places /theatres in the north where Dennis and Jessie might just possibly been... to watch or perform would help me . I do not know Bradford although I read whatever I can. Those Alhambra memories sound good. Anything more ? I checked and Dennis and Jessie were on stage in London by 1918 and into 1920's a few years . Dad was only about 5 when taken to London to see them so 1924 . I'll get busy now. Any in-put appreciated. Valerie N Yorks
