Davies123 4 Posted March 15, 2018 Report Share Posted March 15, 2018 Looking to find my old school mate Sue Bramley. We went to Gedling Secondary Modern in the 70's. She had a Brother called Maurice and think she may have had a Sister called Avril but not too sure. Would love to hear from anyone that knows where she might be now. Thanks in anticipation.

DAVIDW 1,674 Posted March 15, 2018 Report Share Posted March 15, 2018 There was a Sue Bramley in my year too at Gedling but that would have been 10 years earlier mid 60s . As far as I remember she lived on the estate near the school and was a good dancer , very athletic , think she appeared in a few pantos at Theatre Royal . Wonder if they were related ?

Davies123 4 Posted March 15, 2018 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2018 Not sure about that. I can't remember any mention of another Sue Bramley in the family but I could be wrong. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
katyjay 5,085 Posted March 15, 2018 Report Share Posted March 15, 2018 There is a Sue Bramley on FB, but she went to Gedling School so it says, must be the one David means. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
carni 10,094 Posted March 15, 2018 Report Share Posted March 15, 2018 The Bramley family that David speaks of lived on Phoenix estate. There was Susan, Jane and I think the sons name was Tony? There may have been another girl but it's many years ago so I could be wrong. I was in Janes class all through school until we left in 1963. That is possibly the last time I saw her.

Katy , the only one I can see on FB says she lives in Gedling and went to Carlton Le Willows . Don't think that was the Sue Bramley I knew (unless you're seeing a different one ?).

annswabey 599 Posted March 15, 2018 Report Share Posted March 15, 2018 There's a possibility for her sister on Facebook - will send you a message Quote Link to post Share on other sites

DJ360 6,712 Posted March 16, 2018 Report Share Posted March 16, 2018 Could any of the above be related to the Bramleys who lived on Bestwood Estate? Mr and Mrs had sons Peter and Harold, plus daughters Pauline and.. I think Olive? One of the girls sent a lovely card with (presumably married name )Taylor after my Mum died, but gave no address.

Davies123 4 Posted March 16, 2018 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2018 Don't think so, as I never heard anyone from Bestwood mentioned. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DAVIDW 1,674 Posted March 16, 2018 Report Share Posted March 16, 2018 I note there was a death published in 2016 , in the Nottingham family announcements , for a Maurice Victor Bramley . Of course could be some other Maurice and not related but also mentioned were a Maxine, Nick and Amanda (children?). May be useful if you are doing a FB search .
