Dagnam Road Sheffield 2, History

I doubt that I live in your Uncles old house, as the gent who passed away whilst sat in his chair in the front room passed around 2001, the only name I can remember is that he was called Malcom, I am still researching, as I find it eerily interesting

I will try and find out the house number.

Probably a million miles off, but the numbers between 80-90+ are rattling around my daft head??

Maybe someone else on here knew my uncle around the 80s off Dagnam Road?

Hi Neil sorry didn't get back to you had problem with fone changed my fone and couldn't get no ported across till today

think it was 1979 Henry moved to 105 dagnam rd

My grandad died in 1974, I think my grandmother moved out not long after to live with my aunty

Their next door neighbours were the Moony's, I can vaguely recall Margaret Moony, She was older than me and had curly ginger hair, I can also remember the Callagans who lived across the road, Kath and Eva, Kath had a sister but I can't remember her name now but she had lots of animals!!

We Have lived on Dagnam Road for about 10 years, and i am very interested in the social history of the area that i now call home. Up to now i have spoken to a few people who have told me that the house that i live in has had 2 people pass away, 1 in the living room, & 1 in the bedroom. I have also managed to speak to one of the original builders of the property that i now reside, who was shocked to see that very little had been done to the property that was built in 1936, only in the last year or so has any refurbishment work been carried out. Personally i love the place, with newer families moving in all the time i wondered if people had an interest as to the people who may have lived there previously, & will there be any skeletons unearthed in the old cupboards.

sorry to revive an old thread, just curious to know what number you live/lived at if you're still on Dagnam? We live on the eastbank road end for 20+ years.
