I remember you and your sister sheila you lived next door to grimleys who were on queen mary road .I was Ennis Newton a long time ago.I now live in the South of England. I expect you remember my brothers Trevor,Keith and Cyril.

 

I remember your family very well Ennis, I am Mavis Petch/Turner that was. We used to live bang opposite your house. Do you remember my brothers Carl, Alan and Brian? The last time I saw any of your family was when Cyril was retiring from the Police Force. He was 45 and I was just starting work there (Sheffield Police Headquarters, Snig Hill) as a cleaner.

I also remember ripping your Keith's jacket pocket off when we were larking about.

Best wishes to you and all your family. Tatty Dumps.

Was Ennis Newton a train driver by any chance?

 

I remember a Mr Newton when i was growing up. He was a fabulous old man. Always had sweets for us and thrived on us telling him what we were up to.

His door was always open, no need to knock. Just walk in and talk away.

Hi Ennis, I'm so glad you remember my family. Sadly Alan passed away in 1995, very young 56, cancer. I still miss him. I am in contact with the Kings via the Forum and private emails. Dorothy married an ex-boy friend of mine and they are living on the Norfolk Broads-still happily married. I live alone in Heeley and getting about on a mobility scooter. Your contact has brought back so many happy memories, I used to have a crush on your Keith but I think I am over it now. Talk soon love. Mavis

Hi download,

Just seen your post ,yes I`m married to Dorothy King as was, Exactly what mobile Mavis said:hihi: She (Dorothy) has just beat me over the Head as I don`t know you personally she was eager to get in touch with you and chat on the phone if you get in touch with Tatty Dumps she can give you our telelphone number if you want to call. You mention Cary Road, I did have a cousin lived on Cary his name Barry Virgin also on the Sheffield Forum. By the way Dorothy tells me you were a good singer, I reckon if you and Tatty got together you would make a good duo, what with you singing and Tatty whistling,she used be a female Ronnie Renald,

Please get in touch or my life won`t be worth living.

Hi Sapper It's so good to hear Dorothy is in charge. In your reply to Ennis you mention a cousin called Virgin was their also a Margaret in the family. She was older than me and if I remember rightly she was very small her nickname was Titch Virgin. Also did she marry an American. Hi Dorothy, I hope you are well. Best love Mavis

Hi to my trolley dolly

Thought you might pop in and have a word with us. That`s right I do have a cousin who married a Canadian, called Margaret she`s still knocking about. Her brother is a Sheffield Forummer we had a short chat a few months ago on the forum. I didn`t Know they called her titch.Hey up I was only about twelve then.

All our best wishes Dorothy and Stanxx

Hey up!!!! I was only about twelve then. She happened to be a friend of my baby sitter - that's how I knew her. She was a friend of Alice Jarvis who lived at the bottom of Cary on Queen mary. By the way have you got my email about Albert? Talk soon. Love to you both. Mavis X
