HI the correct spelling is Kubiack...She lived on Grimesthorpe rd and was marreid to Ludwig Kubiak who died in 1969...they had a daughter. Anne

:help:trying to find Anne Kubiak sheffield

I don't do Facebook so I can't comment on there. I didn't know Doreen personally other than she made the flowers for our wedding in 1970. At the time I used to pass her shop on my way to work and she was the obvious choice because I was able to call in my lunchtime.

She was very outspoken as was her mother who used to be in the shop but, she had flair for flower arranging and she made exactly the ones we designed.

Is it anecdotal information you require or family history research?

Both please..

Could it be Doreen Ackerman you're looking for ?

Born 19th Feb 1927 and died Feb 1994 ?

Had a shop 56 Well Road ?

Yes the very same do you have any further info...would be greatfully accepted....Kind regards:)

Hi I'm trying to find information about Doreen.

hi there

I knew Jane Naretti & Andrew Moffat they went to the same schol as me (Herries) back in the 80's

I'm looking for information about that time, my father-in-law served on Gibraltar during 1954-1956 for his national service, do you have any pictures, details, information from that time. His name is Ray Cobby, Lance Corporal, he was in the RAOC and also rowed for the Army Whaler crew? I really hope you can help.

Don't really have any info but if you go on the site facebook there's a group called RAF Gibraltar they have some good photos on there

hope this helps a little

It seems as if you who lived there dindnt like it as much as us who used it as a bunkering/waterhole

you may have a point but lookig back loved it... for you guys passing through it's a holiday for us it was everyday life. still a great posting though

This might have gone before so if it has I apologise for wasting everyones time.

When I was a kid I often wondered what was the longest road in Sheffield.

This can be measured in length or highest house number.

1. Did any road in Sheffield go over 1,000 as a house number?

2 Does anyone know which is the longest road? I always thought it might be Gleadless Road but maybe it was Rivelin Valley Road. How about Herries Road or possibly Prince of Wales or even Abbeydale Road.

I await your learned comments.

Happy walking!!

PS I don't think we can include changes to the road by adding South or North to a road like Abbeydale Road South

Hi there Just got back from Canada and spent most my time in Toronto there's a street there called Yonge Street. That's the longest one in the world

Hi there

I was on a YOP (Youth opportunities scheme) at Doncasters on Penistone Rd back I 1981. And still work for them now:loopy:

hey julie I went to Herries 76-81 and know you to find out more send me a private e-mail

I remember when I was at Ellesmere Primary we had a bell to signal the the start and end of play time and the end of school. It was a great pleasure and honour to ring it:gag: ...What happened to all them school Bells:huh:

i worked at herries in 1980,under the "guidance" of gordon hobson,the school caretaker.

What an arsehole,always on the moral high ground,but having affairs with a couple of his cleaning staff while married.

Nice one bit of salacious gossip I went to Herries between 76- 81 so we were there at the same time don't really remember the cleaners apart from one never even crossed my mind at that age that people would be having affairs... LOL:hihi:

went to Herries !!!! ???

Does the Boys brigade still exist today.

I was in Andover Street as a kid and used to go on the spring bank holiday marches to Firthpark.

They used to get a large following and it was a long walk to Firth Park from Pitsmoor in them days.

I have some old 8mm footage now transfered on to video of the march coming up Barnsley Road about 1964 with all my family and little old blonde me.

Do you think that todays kids would take part in anything like that, its hard to see an 8 year old with a boys brigade uniform on today.

I was in in the BB for a short space of time early 70's. can't remember its name/number but it was based at the top of Sutherland Road and Petre street. We Marched from there (it was a real big dealwith loads turning out to watch) to Firth park which seemed like miles but very enjoyable and on the way we would meet and join up with other bands and churches or organisations I thought it was great. It wasn't until years later that found out kids/people where doing the same on the same day marching to Meersbrook Hillsborugh and Western park never knew that's pretty awesome. This would never happen in this day and age NO WAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Did my hands just get bigger or have Cadbury Cream Eggs got smaller:hihi:
