Nature of EnquiryI wonder if you might be able to help me regarding details of my grandfather, John William Ankers. On his marriage certificate dated 2/06/1915 his occupation is stated as Police Constable, according to family folklore, he was sacked possibly in the 1930's for drinking on duty whilst keeping warm on an overnight operation and also that for some time he held some sort of record for being on point duty at the crossroads at School Road/Cross Street, Sale. Are there any records in your archives that would be able to verify/disclaim this information? Any help you may be able to give would be much appreciated.
