Felix bus company
My great aunt,Miss Ida Bacon was the bookkeeper at the Felix bus company until her death in ? 1996. My husband and I visited her at the garage in Stanley in 1995 and had lunch with her.it was pay day and she was making up the small brown cash envelops for the drivers. My mother Ivy was born in Ikkleston and also lived in West Hallam. Ida never married and I believe I met a great nephew of Ida's that day. When my mother was alive they wrote monthly but as my mother died 44 years ago a lot of family history is lost. Any information on Harry Bacon,Ida's cousin would be gratefully received.
