Hi Trudy, you were one of my dear childhood friends. Have never forgotten you . You were Maureen Alderman. Do you remember me ?
Gaynor Shemwell. X

Did you have a bother called Mark Alderman?

Hi Gaynor,I think you used to live in Bedwellty Road if I remember rightly,do you remember a girl called Susan Goddard? and what part of the country/world she moved to? also I think another girl from Bedwellty Road called Diane Batten moved away from Cefn Fforest,and I just wondered where they may be now! I was in school with them and would love to get in touch.I,m not sure where you moved to,but I think it was oz! I havent seen Neil for quite a few years now,hope all is ok with your family.Kind Regards, Rob Ovens

Do you live in South Wales I did return and it was strange too g back to old home neighbours changed. I Do not know where Dianne lives but remember her as a childhood friend.

My father Ronald Edward Alderman was i believe Minnie ? Williams son

Terry Alderman

I remember Aunt Minnie I have a family tree and she is mentioned in it. I also have lots of names of the Alderman relations on your Dads side. That is why I requested your DNA so it would link up and maybe show you the Alderman side. By the way did your mum Muriel work at the Maxine movie theatre in Blackwood.

Also Ronald was the youngest son of 7 children of David Alderman and Gertrude Maud Phillips

Hello, my name is Medea nee Alderman.Ronald Alderman was my father,s brother.His name was Wilfred Henry Alderman.I remember going to visit Maureen and her Mum Aunty Dora. My Mum was Aunty Leah to Maureen.
I remember playing with cut out dolls and dressing them with clothes. Maureen if you remember please get in touch. What was your bothers name? X

Hi Trudi I'm your cousin Janet Alderman Bates just found this page so I've signed up My Dad Was your Uncle Ern I remember Aute Dora And Uncle Ron very well We lived in Penybryn Avenue opposite the school and then moved to No 9 just around the corner from you I see you have had communication from Medea Colyn my older brother lives in Ontairio and Stewart my younger lives in Tredegar would be nice to hear from you and know a bit about you and your life since you went to Canada I always remember that you had lovely Blond hair Hope you get in touch

my memories of the Aldermans are foggy i was young when we left and have been trying to update the family tree. Are you about my age? I occasionally keep in touch with Gaynor who lives in Australia now so its nice to hear that you are a relative. Sorry about memories I did get a email from Neil long time ago filling me in on names of Ronald brothers etc. That part is done on the tree. Are you on ancestry? I was supposed to have gone back this past August but Covid stopped all travel...I chat on skype with relatives on other side of family several times a month. So nice to keep up. I will take some of the names you mention and look them up on ancestry. I think Terry Alderman maybe trying to connect with family members because I did have a reply from him. He is the son of my Dad from second marriage.

Give me your phone number I will call you for a chat Where are you living.I would love to see the family tree you have tooI am older than you born 1939 Colyn will be 83 in August and Syewart was 70 this year I have 1 son who is 54 Hope to speak to you sometime
