The book I have done about Joseph Higginson will be available soon from St. Mary's Heritage, in Stockport Market Place. Unfortunately they do not have a direct phone number, but if you live some distance away by all means contact me at mike.kiernan@ntlworld.com and I can arrange to get a copy to you. I have also suggested his name be put forward for the Blue Plaque Scheme, for his contribution to the development of Reddish Village.
