[edit] Was Don born in Rochdale or Crumpsall ?

There seems to be some confusion about where Done Estelle was born. A google search reveals a couple of sources that say he was born in Rochdale but This one Says he was born in Crumpsall and This one says he was born in Manchester but says he was buried in his "home town" of Rochdale, which may be what has caused the confusion. A friend of mine knew Don as a child and says he grew up on Russel Street, Crumpsall and he was pretty sure he was born there. He was evacuated to Darwen in the second world war and later moved back to Crumpsall where he sang at St. Mary's Church. If there is no evidence for the Rochdale connection the category needs to be changed and the article reworded. Richerman 23:38, 17 October 2007 (UTC)


It seems that Estelle was born and raised in Crumpsall but lived in Rochdale in later life, so I have corrected and expanded the article, added references and added the category "People from Crumpsall" Richerman 23:54, 21 October 2007 (UTC)
