Tracing my family history name hallas
bobilly replied to bobilly's topic in Sheffield History & Expats
hi hillsbro, many many thanks for that information ,i did manage to get intouch with my cousin that i have not seen for over 30 year , that took me months to track him down and what you have given me in such a short space of time would have taken me months if not years but it seems to fit in with the little that my cousin know's about the family , as you may have gathered i am new at this . could you tell me what is the kelly's directory and can i get onto it and what information can you get from it ? again many thanks bobilly -

Hi Janet yes Barrie remembers Clive Shepherd but has not got any idea as to what happend to Henry and Esme or Cyril and Joyce . we don't get back to that neck of the woods very often ,it has all changed now . with all the one way systems and new builds . i think lewis is still around ,i can remember Barrie saying last time he went to Oughtibridge he called in to see Sylvia still in the paper shop but that was a long while ago .
