  2. Hi again, barely been on for over a year. Pm sent to ambogran ---------- Post added 29-06-2013 at 10:51 ---------- My mother has read what you said and ken says he keeps seeing you and she is sorry to hear about pat. Ill keep checking this thread every now and then also on her behalf. Thanks
  3. My mother says she can remember Eileen Goodison. My mother says if you private message or post your real name here she'll remember you to Ken.
  4. My mother says the name Moles rings a bell, was there a Marilyn Moles ? it may have been a different Moles Family. My mother knew the Elwis family but can only remember the names of Rita since she was a few years younger than them. My mothers cousin is Ken Randall, he went to St Silas also and meets up with some of his old school friends, he is approximately 75 years old now. Did you know Ken ?
  5. @ rogerhatton - my mother says she remembers the trainbearers as Elaine and Susan so it must be them. Does anyone remember Marie and Keith Jones who both lived next to my mother ? @ grannypat - yes my mother's maiden name was Futter (margaret). Her father was Samuel and mother Minnie, with a sister Rita. In my mothers class at St Silas was Jean Hancock, Pam Clark, Dawn Webster, Pat Bradbury, Elaine Bland, Rita Bower, Arthur McClarence, Malcolm Umberstone, David Lee, Peter Dutton. She also remembers a girl called Rita Elwis who was a few years older who lived on Moore Street who was a few years older than we were. She hasnt seen anything of Dougie Stevenson since they moved.
  6. My mother says she remembers Dougie Stevenson and his sisters they lived up clarence street up a yard (if its the same family). Michael Yellot, we lived three doors away from him closer to St Silas school. She is certain she must know Edith Parker, but cannot put a face to her. She also believes she went to St Silas school at the same time as grannypat. We hope you all are having a very good christmas !
  7. My mother asks what was your grans name ? she may have known her, and did you got to St Silas school ?
  8. My mother and her cousin came across these images recently which ive taken a picture of and then uploaded to the internet. Image of Hodgson Street, St Silas in the middle and Richards Cutlery Factory on the right - CLICK HERE Image of 74 Hodgson street opposite St Silas School - CLICK HERE Ive private messaged a few people who have posted in this thread but due to its long term length spanning a few years i doubt many people will be aware of its relevance anymore. I hope people find these images as fond memories.
  9. Ive always been fond of the Arundel chippy on Arundel Road, Chapeltown. Closed Mondays & Tuesdays.
  10. My mother used to work on the covering machines on the first floor for Colin Bull, Vick Roberts, then she can also remember Les Harrington from the celloid department. She also worked downstairs for George Pepper on the inlaid scissors.
  11. Hello i am the son of a lady who used to live on Hodgson street for who i am typing this. Her name was Margaret Futter, daughter of Samuel and Minnie Futter, with an older sister Rita. She lived at number 74 and went to St Silas school and remembers the teachers Mr Fovargue, Mr Hill the head, Mrs Housley and others such as Miss Naylor, Miss Rathbone and Mr Wilson. She remembers old school friends such as Roger Hatton, Dawn Webster, Peter Dutton, David Lee, Arthur McLarence, Jean Hancock, Elaine Bland, Rita Bower, Anne Mansfield, Rita Gambles who sadly she heard passed away some years ago now. She also remembers the Marsden family who lived in the yard opposite the school, the Adams family and their children, one of which she is still in contact with. She lived next door to Mr and Mrs Jones who had a son Keith and daughter Marie, about when they slept in the attics and shout to each other through the wall as children. At certains times of the year in the cellar it used to have about four inches of water flood the whole cellar, and she would laugh about her mothers bottles of drinks floating around in the water. My mother remembers Judy the monkey, who lived in the cage beside the chippy on Young street. In the classrooms at school there were always jam jars painted green for the flowers and when it was time for the May queen the older pupils would go around Millhouses and other areas asking people to spare flowers from their gardens for the May queens. My mother was the May queen of St Silas school in the 1953 festival of Britain, there were two train barers, Elaine and Susan who's surnames we cannot remember. Can anyone remember my mother Margaret and her older sister Rita ?
  12. According to the latest bus time tables, the 17 has now gone back to its old route, Hillsborough > Foxhill > Parson Cross, whilst the 77 will service Grenoside on its way out of Sheffield towards High Green, and the 80 will service Grenoside on its way back towards Sheffield from High Green. So, this does leave Grenoside without a direct single route to Meadowhall. Pilon, i think the best thing you can do is probably walk to the top of Cowper Avenue to catch a 17, or if easier, walk to the top of Deerlands Avenue to catch the 17. Lets just hope it turns up.
