My husband Clarence lived in Driffield St. and went to Burton St. Sch. in 1946 - 1952. then he went to Central Tech. My cousin Maureen Shaw from Rawson St. went there too. My grandma Mrs. Fellows lived at 19 Brough St. so I know the area very well as my grandmother on my mother's side was born at 52 Rawson St. We now live in Canada and can't believe how that area has changed. It looks so small to say that all those people lived there. Dad worked at Andrews Toledo all his life and we lived in the Kelvin on Jenkinson St. Bye P

 

The chap who lives next door to me is a CTS. old boy and knows your husband from there. His name is Alan Chapman.

I didn't know her personally, it was my mum who knew her, my mum was also born in Cottam street in 1935, so knew them all well I think, I'll ask her at the weekend if she knows anymore about Laura Burgoyne , my mum was Shirley Barnes before she married my dad and became Badger.

 

shirley was older than me barry was in the same class at burton street till we left think there was a younger brother
