Thanks for that unfortunately that was the year I was born! So I don't fit into that catergory.

How do we find out about Hinde House re-unions?

Anyone remember Mr Chadwick, history teacher from Hinde House late 60's and 70's?. He was good! I think he must have been a socialist.

I used to go with my Dad and take our dog onto the track. We also used to go to Darnell and Wombwell I think?

Sanman, what ward did your Mum work on?

Dido, do you remember Billy, he had some sort of special chair, he was in some of the pics with my Dad. He must have been there from about 1948 or there abouts. He had TB in his leg.

My Dad was in King Edwards for about 2 years 64-66? I got so used to visiting him there that I did my nurse training there from 73-75. He was also in there alot when he was a boy. I have lots of very old pics from then, when they were outside on the beds in the snow!

I remember the vicar at St Hildas it was Ron Thompson. He used to come and visit us on Foxglove Road and have an ice cream with us. He was very kind to us when my Dad went into Rivelin with TB

Anyone know what the state of Coode house, Millsands and surrounding area is like?

Hello Geotom, Yes my grandad did use to go to Grimesthorpe club. At the time they lived on Upwell street my great grandma also lived with them. Her brother also lived on Rothey Road, I think. Cat, my Mum and I didn't live on Wincobank lane until they late 60's early 70's. Can't really remember many of the people that lived there.

Hello cat, you perhaps know some of my family as they hung around with Don Smith in the adys of the boys brigade........

Hi was at Hinde House from about 68 to 72. Remember some of the names already mentioned. Was in the same form as Janet South, Elaine Self Gill ? Susan Davies, Katheryn Earnshaw. Anyone remember these people. Have to mention I left before the riot!!!!!

My grandparents were Drabble, they lived in the same yard as the Bruce and Dawson families. Granddad was an air raid warden in WWII

The cottages on Wincobank lane were still there about 69/70 about the time of the death of Hendrix. I lived in the last one before the chapel with my mum.

Hi everyone, new to this forum so hope it works. My grandparents were from Upwell street, Grimesthorpe. They were Harry and Mable and lived at 177. Anyone know of them. Just started my family tree so looking for information.
