did you know Jacky Cooper, the STocks, Darbys,stubbs ?

 

Hi i'm from Jubilee rd and remember the people you mentioned. I am related to the Darbys my cousin Derek ( Dick ) passed away last year I was in touch with him until he died, if you remember him he was rather a tough guy. I have very fond memories of our Dick!!!.

 

The other people you mention I knew them well. Jacky Cooper has a caravan on the same site as me in Skeggy, small world Jubilee rd to Skeggy.

 

I have very fond memories of Jubilee road and still regard it as my home. When I was a kid I used to deliver milk with Roy the coop milkman and used to do a couple of streets with him before I went to school for some spending money. Good days !!!!!

Hi Yes I do mean Dick that married Mary Wright. Sorry if I shocked you but it was sad if you remember our Dick you recall he was a powerful bloke it was pitiful to see him shuffling about he had a brain tumour. However he bore it well and with dignity!!!!

Hi DJ

I used to live on Jubilee road from 1950 - 1971,

I,m a bit older than you but I have brothers and sisters that you may remember, our surname is Stevens. I had a friend that must have lived near you Trev Turner, have,nt seen him for years, I now live in Skegness.

 

is margaret stevens related to you

[terry457]

I originally lived on Frederick Street, next door to the Pask family. We then moved to Malvern Road, a cul-de-sac off Industry Road. I have downloaded lots of black and white photos of the area because it brings back such happy memories.

 

I remember the parades going up Darnall Main Road. It saddens me that they chose to demolish the area as it was a close community.

Hi Kevin bet that was a big thrill living next door to Buster Pask ! Where did you put the photos? I knew a lad on Malvern called Tony Needs (spelt wrong) and Nevill Smith that lived just below on Industry
