My Family Tree - Fisher, CHARLES

Narrative

Charles worked as a warp dresser all his life. This was a skilled job, compared with most of the other jobs in cotton mills. Charles operated a machine that wound yarn from packages onto reels and from reels onto loom beams to prepare multiple coloured warps for weaving. The warp is the lengthwise or longitudinal thread in a roll of material, the weft is the transverse thread.
Charles and Ann had 4 children.
Their son Ernie married in August 1928, the third of their childen to marry. Don't know what happened to their youngest child William after leaving school.
When they were in their sixties, Charles and Ann retired to Mitchell Gardens. The houses were newly built and were still there in 2019. Vic Finn working at Mitchell Gardens in 2019 said "Our tenancy history only goes back to 1999 but it’s showing the year of construction as 1937 so they were new tenants. Manchester Council owned it at the time. It was transferred to Willow Park Housing Trust in 1999."
