EileenH 496 Posted February 28, 2010 Report Share Posted February 28, 2010 Hello. I`ve just found this site from a link in the Old Meadows site. I was born as Eileen Goodall in Cary Cottages, Hawthorn Street and went to Bosseyed Kippers until we moved to Calverton in 1953. I look forward to browsing the site.

mick2me 3,033 Posted March 1, 2010 Report Share Posted March 1, 2010 I'm sure there were Starbucks at Trent Bridge School in the 60's? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
EileenH 496 Posted March 1, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2010 I wish - do you think I should try to claim some of my moral inheritance? Actually, when doing family history research I did find a branch that had gone from England to America a couple of years ago. "Oh, come to my arms dear tenth cousin. How`d you like a joint account then?" Quote Link to post Share on other sites
