message: Good old Heaton Park gets claimed by everyone, Crumpsall, Blackley, Prestwich......It's bordered by all these places (plus Simister and maybe Rhodes) but is actually part of the City of Manchester, although I think it was part of Prestwich before it was sold to Manchester Council by the Earl of Wilton.

I have added a rider, before any more irrelevant entries are placed.
To qualify here, then the person either should have been born in the area, or Manchester area and become a Blackley resident.
I have removed Tony Monopoly on the grounds his online bio information is very scant.  He was suposedly a monk at St Clares, but there is only a fleeting, unsupported remark.  The wikipedia article states he "died in Brighton, England on 21 March 1995, whilst visiting St Clare's, Blackley, where he had once been a monk.", whilst IMDB says he died in Blackley,  doesnt inspire any confidence.    In fact on checking the only source, there is no reference to Manchester, apart from possibly filming with Bernard Manning.
I have removed Mike Hall, as employment for 4yrs at ICI Blackley is no way notable. --Keith 17:17, 14 July 2010 (UTC)

message: Removed a reference to 14,000 in 1961.  Although this is figure quoted in source material, I beleive it relates to total employed at all sites by the company.   On reflection, 14,000 in the Vale seems too many bodies!!! --Keith 16:30, 25 July 2010 (UTC)
