Lincolnshire memories
Memories
I was born in Upton in 1961 and was brought up and attendent at the infant school there as well as attending Sunday School and being in the church choir for quite a few years. The people I remember are Mrs Gibson the headmistress at Kexby School along with teachers Mrs Garner and Mrs Jones. Then the vicar Mr John Knight an ex military vicar but friendly and at that point soon to be the RE teacher at my secondary school in nearby Gainsborough. The other locals - Nev Barnes, the Mrs Longdon who had the chip shop in the village and the Mr and Mrs Broadbent who had the shop and post office. These were happy days and how I wish they could have continued for ever. Of course all these people have gone now but they will never be forgotten, well, not by me anyway.
Information / Photographs
I am researching the village of Grayingham in Lincolnshire and would be interested to receive any information, pictures, of weddings, etc or of people of the village.
Royal Air Force
Basic training days over, my first posting "Scampton" with 230 OCU. I remember having fire duty sitting beside the control tower as fighter pilots converted to bomber, the exercise being circuits and bumps with the Lincoln bomber, some of the bumps were were heavy, good job the aircraft was well built. I am proud to have served, it was a wonderful experience.
Aany Information Please
I was born at Gate Burton Hall in 1941. The only information I have is that my mother was born in Louth and later lived in Hull. I think that she was evacuated there during the war. Does anyone have any information regarding the hall being used as a maternity hospital during the war?
Gate Burton Hall
I was also born at Gate Burton Hall. My mother was evacuated from Hull. I hope to get more information and visit Gate Burton in June next year.
Gate Burton Hall
I was born 27th February 1945, In Gate Burton Hall. My mum was evacuated from Hull with other expectant mothers. She often used to talk of the carpet of snowdrops she could see through the window. Every birthday she would get me a small bunch of snowdrops. One on these days I would like to venture to my birth place.
Guernsey Evacuees
My mother and her family, the Petits, were evacuees from Guernsey during World War 2. They were housed in Coates by Stow and then Saxilby. They attended Stow School. There were 8 children, Cyril, Donald,Olive, Mavis, Monica, Audrey, John and Mary. My mother, Monica, informs me that they were involved in putting on plays at the local hall and photos appeared in the local papers. Does anyone remember them and /or have photos? Thank you, Jackie Thom.
