Ernest Peck and his second wife Mabel, and his children, Ernest, Elsie May, Dennis, Leonard, Walter and Sheila. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

loppylugs 8,424 Posted July 31, 2013 Report Share Posted July 31, 2013 Sorry to hear that, Babs. Only vaguely remember Lily Daft. Of course, anybody who was involved in that church when I was a kid would be well into their 80s by now. Seems like the Piggot and Daft families were very involved in that church along with the Milne family as I remember it. I don't recall a regular preacher, I think they used a lot of travelling preachers to fill the pulpit. This was common in Methodist circles. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

loppylugs 8,424 Posted May 14, 2018 Report Share Posted May 14, 2018 Welcome bobster. I grew up in Netherfield. Moved out when I was about 17. In the early 60s. There are some more threads on Netherfield and folks have posted some good stuff over the years. You may be able to do a search on the word and pull some of them up. I'm pretty sure I've put some photos here and there. Memory is getting a bit iffy. Hope you keep posting. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
