SheilaT 4 Posted April 20, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2014 Hi Babs, I can remember Gary, June Thorpe's son but I can't remember any of her other children. You say you went to live on Deabill st, my cousin lived at 40 his name was George Ruff, he lived there all his life. Can you remember June Smith, I'm sure she married one of the Bates lads and I think they were going to live in Australia. I remember Mary Garner, she lived at the last house on Forester st. she was in my class and Geogina Glover , her dad had the butchers shop. I can remember the name Ray Clements but not his face. It was'nt me who organised the reunion it must have been Joyce Ibbotson, she did things like that, and yes Ann was Jean Lawtons younger sister, and we still see each other .

Can you remember Pat Merritt she lived at 42 Deabill st, I went to school with her and Irene Bush, do you remember her.,there was the Wraggs who lived down Hodgkinson st, what about the Swinscoes do you remember them, there was Colin, Dave, Maureen, Ida and a couple more who I can't think of. I'm still in touch with Ida , we phone each other and when I'm in Netherfield I nip in to see her, and Ann Lawton.

carni 10,094 Posted April 21, 2014 Report Share Posted April 21, 2014 Babs, I lived on Hardy's Drive Gedling until 1959 and there was a family with the surname Wragg, who lived on the corner of Main Road and Hardy's Drive. Could this be the same family, as the name Sandra Wragg seems familiar to me? Could be some connection as it is a fairly unusual Surname. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
carni 10,094 Posted April 21, 2014 Report Share Posted April 21, 2014 Batesy #26 There are Comery's in my Family, going way back. I have traced them to Thurgaton in early 1800s and then Carlton to present day. They were all over Carlton and Sneinton throughout the 18 and 1900s, but the name I am connected to is spelt Comery with one M. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
loppylugs 8,424 Posted April 21, 2014 Report Share Posted April 21, 2014 Seem to remember there was a place called Wraggs organ builders on the Nottingham side of Carlton hill. Possibly on the end of Porchester road? They were the days when churches still had pipe organs rather than electronic. Wonder if they were relatives of the Nettherfield Wraggs?

Batesy 22 Posted April 21, 2014 Report Share Posted April 21, 2014 Hi carni,I'm not sure how comery was spelt,the girl I knew was in my class at cavo secondary school,her name was dawn,and they lived across the road from us on coningswath,other than that I don't remember to much about them Quote Link to post Share on other sites
piggy and babs 544 Posted April 21, 2014 Report Share Posted April 21, 2014 carni dont know as far as i can remember they always lived on hogekinson st know they had at least two sons eddie was a bit older than me perhaps two years and was always hitting my little brother if we were on the st when he came home from school never tried to hit me he knew i would lamp him one when he first started senior school my little brother was only about 7 y/o he hit him one day as he passed he did not realize i was just in side the enrty with our dog kim i told the dog to get him be ran like hell down the st the dog close on his heels before he got to the top of his street the dog had hold of his trouser ares and riped them nipping him at the same time but not really biting him.his dad came up to our house sortly after playing up hell saying my dad needed to buy him new trousers my dad told him if he had not been hitting my brother the dog would not have been chasing him in the first place and if he did it again he would tell us to do it again if the dog was there. and no way was he going to buy new trousers for him and to go to police if he did not like it he went off chuntering to himself sandra later told one of my older sister he gave eddie a good hiding when he got back he never hit him again carnt remember the eldest lads name but the often came to our house with my elder brother Quote Link to post Share on other sites
carni 10,094 Posted April 21, 2014 Report Share Posted April 21, 2014 Batesy #40, I dare say Dawn is some distant relation to me, but there are so many branches in my family tree, she is probably very distant. I don't remember the name Dawn at all. But a Comery surname from Carlton is a possible link. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SheilaT 4 Posted April 22, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2014 Hi Babs, I lived on Arthur st about 6 houses from the cinder path. Peter Burrows lived next but one to us and across the street was Dorothy Pritchett. At the top of the street was Otters shop, and if Mrs Otter was serving I didn't like going in for a newspaper cos I was frightened of her . I was at Ida and George's wedding at St.Georges church, she now lives down Colwick. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SheilaT 4 Posted April 22, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2014 We moved to Bailey st when I was 11, used to play on the rec at the bottom of Forester st, a gang of us used to go on the Cricket field and jump the concrete blocks under the bridge. When I think back to what we all used to do , but we couldn't see any danger then. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
