Leeds nostalgia: The twins, eight, celebrating their second birthday in 1948...

Pictured 70 years ago this week are twins Anne and Elizabeth Moorhouse, who attended school in Roundhay.

They were daughters of Mr and Mrs R C Moorhouse, of Park Crescent. Curiously, they were celebrating their second birthday, having been born on February 29 some eight years earlier.

The story appeared in the YEP on February 1948.

They were the youngest of four generations living at their Roundhay home. Their grandmother was Mrs G White and their great grandmother was Mrs E McHale. If you know them or are related, please get in touch.
