This is the story of a family which has always lived in the heart of one of the traditional working class communities of the North. Originally immigrants from Ireland in the mid-nineteenth century, their saga, their triumphs and tragedies unfolded in the cobbled streets, working men's cottages and terraced houses of Horwich, near Manchester.

The woman I approached looked very different than my twin sister did the last time I saw her. Could this be a ruse; somebody pretending to be my long-lost identical twin sister? But what would be the object of such an action? Our family didn't have any money and we certainly couldn't have come into the view of some gangster or national embezzler. We are an average farming family who had to give up farming and resort to becoming employees of small local businesses. Surely nobody would target us for a scam.
