Theo Hindley

Hello,
I have information about your Great Uncle Theo. He was a great friend of my father (who died recently aged 90) when Theo´s father held a living in
St. Hilda´s church in Heaton park, Manchester. He often visited the family and has made many references to his friendship with Theo including character sketches in drafts of letters sent to a friend. we have a draft of a letter to Louise Hindley when he heard that Theo had gone missing and the reply he received from her) and autobiographical notes he made in his later years. He kept Christmas cards from Theo and one is from the time of his belonging to the RAF as it has airplanes on it and the insigna per ardua ad astra.
Our family have always known about Theo, he was a legend although we never knew him of course.
If you are at all interested in the information we can offer you, please let me know.
Meanwhile with Best regards
