Year: 1947
Braintree County High School
I own a picture of the students of BCHS taken in 1947. Such a view has many many names and connections. There is the headmaster Dr. Cordingly [he of the famous stick]. Here is the vicar Hartley Brook's daughter. My old girl friend Shirley, and members of my class including Billy Cranfield, Ron Whittaker, David Woodward, Valerie O'Neill and a crowd of others. There also is "Madame" Elliot who tried in vain to teach me french. I visited the school a couple of years ago to discover to my distress, that it was no more. Perhaps some of those I have named will contact me. I am a physician in Oakland California USA...yes me, the most unruly nuisance of a kid back then...Malcolm Stewart-Morris.

Hi Malcolm,
I too went to BCHS in 1947. I started off in 1F and was then in 2J. The names you mentioned were also in my class but I think it was from 2J onwards. Other names that come to mind are Jeff Elliston, Colin Easter (deceased), Fizzy Foster, Harris, Lois Wood, Delia Trigg, Jill Spink and Katherline Tucker among others. No doubt you remember the Army Cadets with Percy Peasall. I too well remember Dr Cordingly as I received the treatment, much to my father's anger. I would love to see a copy of the school photograph. Hope to hear from you soon.
Regards
Roy Leach
