Sad to relate that we have lost a guy whose output of information concerning the history of Sheffield and South Yorkshire was outstanding.
Many of you I am sure in researching your family history will have come across some of the books and articles he produced.
He will be sorely missed.
Hi Roger
I am so sorry to hear this. I used to talk to Mel in the archives, he was often there with his wife Joan. He did a tremendous lot of research and produced a number of interesting books. He will be sadly missed.
