Merseyside memories
World War II
I was born in West Kirby and lived at 5 Dunraven Rd. I remember being a young choir boy at St Bridget's. My father, great grandmother, grand mother, Aunt and Uncle are all buried in St. Bridget's. Inside the Church is (was) a plaque on the wall dedicated to the soldiers from West Kirby that lost their lives in World War I. My grand father William J. Andrews is on that plaque.
Tracing Family Tree
Hi, I'm am trying to trace Judith Jones or James, she married Samuel Reed then they moved to Heath Farm, Childerthornton. I believe she came from Storeton, but there is nothing registered on this site for Storeton, if anyone can help, I would love to hear from you
The Lake
I have lots of memories of the Marine Lake, fishing as a teenager on a Saturday or Sunday morning. There were many good fish in the lake but you had to watch the yachts did not run off with your line.

My Young Days
I loved living in West Kirby, there was so much to do and the summer holidays seemed to last for ever. I was born and bred there, I lived In Tynwald Road and enjoyed the times myself my sisters and friends spent on the beach and Aston Park, I think I had my first kiss well peck on the cheek at the park. Those were the innocent days and we could venture out, we used to take sandwiches and bottled water and walk to Hilbrie Island for the day. Shame it's not that little village any more but a small town, nowere as pretty as it used to be...Hope some one knows me and gets in touch ...Thanks ....Mavis..
Camp & Fish
What a wonderful place to camp and fish in the 1950's and 60's. Plenty of fish and sea birds and so very peaceful. In recent years the old railway track Hooton-West Kirby line, which ran alongside Thurstaston shore, has been ripped out to make the Wirral Way walking track. I have heard from U.K. friends, that now in 2008, that the track is being widened even further, and is now known by the locals as The Wirral Highway. Such a pity so called progress destroys our history.
