Source of name?

[edit]

Hello, I'm not sure who contributed this stub article, but I'm interested to know the reason this crossing was called Gillett's crossing. I ask because my great-great-grandfather, John Gillett, was a railway signalman in Ansdell; he was born in 1851 so must have been working right from the start of the opening in 1913 - I wonder if this crossing took its name from him? Does anyone have any information? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 152.78.178.75 (talk) 14:22, 11 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
