That is one of the sadnesses I find being so far away. Each time I return home to Eckington now I discover that those I once knew so well are no longer there. My belated condolences Legin for Josie. I used to pal around with a Gordon Levick who lived in that old tudor building next to the Natwest bank on Church Street/Market Street.

The name Levick rings a bell with me. I remember a Jean Levick that was in the same same school class as myself, Westfield Comprehensive 1957 - 1959.

Is this any relation ?,

My Uncle (mums brother) is Stan Jones (really John Jones) and lives at John Street in Eckington, has done for donkeys years.

He used to be a miner, but when the Pit shut he started working with Mentally handicapped.

 

His brothers Pat and Frank Jones were injured in the Brookhouse Colliery disaster in 1958.

 

My mum is called Eileen.
