Dormansland Railway Station, around 1940
My name is Don Davies, my sister Pam and I were evacuated to Dormansland, early in the war, to escape the anticipated bombing of Croydon, Surrey. We stayed with my uncle and aunt in the railway house at the station. My uncle was the general factotum of the station,from porter, ticket collector etc etc.
Unfortunately I cannot remember his name. I have been completing some family history,and have unearthed surnames of Creasey, Skinner, Underwood and Betts.
If any reader can shed some light on my plight, please email me.
Regards,
Don Davies

RE: Dormansland Railway Station, around 1940
I was Dormansland Jubilee May Queen in 1977 and I have been trying to find any old photos of the Carnival so that I may show them to my children. I remember Mr Leaves was Headmaster of the Primary school at that time.
I was born in the village in 1960 and lived at Jeddere Cottages with my 6 sisters and two brothers and our parents.
