Dowling East Family
I have been researching my family tree and it takes me to many villages around the area, Hallatrow, Kilnerston, Clutton, Paulton, Caulter. If anyone has any links I would appreciate the information. I have traced back to early 1800s but it may be that someone local with an interest in family histories has more information. Thanks Gill Edmunds
Farmborough 1945 Till 1960
I lived and went to school at Farmborough, I started school at five years old, my first teacher was Miss Leakey, who later married and became Mrs Smith, two things I remember about her, she had one arm, but was quite strict, anyone not paying attention would be brought back in line by her holding your chin and shaking it, needless to say, we did not play her up very often. Mr Barratt was the headmaster and taught the older children. The school was situated in the road called The Street, which had a brook running alongside, this brook was about four feet below the street level, half way down The Street was a shop, owned by Mrs Halls, who sold virtually everything, from sweets to wool. The vicar was Rev Waddington, who regularly visited the school. I was taken to the Methodist Chapel at the Batch, where Mr Shore and Mr Belsh would take the Sunday School. I lived with Mum at Nanny Brown's House in Timsbury Road,... Read more

A unit of The Army Cadet Force was formed in Farmborough, with headquarters at Bath, about ten or a dozen lads joined. The National Service was then still operating, which us lads expected to be called into, being a cadet would hopefully give us a head start when we expected to be called up at eighteen. Each year Farmborough held a Carnival, which most folk looked forward to, they would dress up as all sorts of things and would decorate anything from a bike to a pram, or tractors and lorries decked as themes, the Carnival would usually be led around the village by the Army Cadet Band, from Bath, it would start at Kingwell, go around the village and end in the field next to The Parish Hall, then in the evening a dance in the Legion hut in Hunstreet Lane.
Wedding
On March 21st this year it will be 50 years since my mum and dad, Christine Hole and Islwyn (Eddie) Griffiths, got married at this lovely country village church. This is not a personal memory, but I have seen photos of the day back in 1959. They are still very much together and love each other to bits!
My own personal memories are a little sadder, the last being the burial of my paternal grandmother (Nana) in the churchyard where she joined my grandfather (Papa) in eternal rest.
Great-Grandfather
Gilbert Evans was from Farrington Gurney.
Grandparents And Father
Grandparents lived in Farrington Gurney and my father was born there in 1922.
Grandfather was Rees West-Gaul, father Geoffrey West-Gaul, does anyone know the family?
Flower Family
I live in The Netherlands. My grandfather was born in Pensford in 1858, his name wass Henry Flower. I am looking for his family (there was a lady of the bridge named Flower?).
