Memories of South Yorkshire
Little Hills / Pit Lane
Born 1937 Kiveton family. Remeber getting on the bikes with my friends, riding over what we called the little hills down the pit lane to the tunnel top. Carrying an old clothes horse and a blanket, that was our tent. Take an old frying pan to cook the tiddlers we had caught. It was great. Having a game of kit can and spinning the wooden tops. Scrumping old Mr Thompson apples at the back of Dawson Terrace, him chasing us with a big stick. Sitting under the table listening the bombs dropping over Sheffield. I could go on. Things were good then
Doris Webster
Help, Please,
I am having a very frustrating time trying to trace my mother's movements. I know she was at the school in Kiveton Park in 1927 in Standard IV. She arrived there from Worksop and returned to Worksop one year later.
When at Kiveton Park she was apparently living at 11 Railway Terrace, with a family called Melbourne.
I have no photographs or other memorabilia of my Mum because she died of TB in late 1941.
Part of my problem rests in the fact that there were apparently two girls called Doris Webster at the school at the same time and of a very similar age. Is there anyone out there who remembers these girls? I do know that the other Doris went on to become a nurse.
It seems that Kiveton Park has come under various bodies as far as records are concerned so if anyone can help with information I shall be very grateful.
Many thanks

James William Lewis
Hi, I hope someone can help me with some information on my grandad James Lewis, all I know is he was born in Bangor in or around 1852, his father was Henry and mother was Susan. He came to New Zealand but I don't know what date. He married a New Zealander in 1897, his dad was a fisherman, that is all I have to go on. Please can someone help? Cheers, Collene, New Zealand
Looking For Jane Crossley
Help needed! I am trying to get in touch with a friend I had in Harthill in the late 1960s/early 1970s. Her name is Jane Crossley, she was my "pen friend" then but we met and I came to stay in Harthill for some time. Her father was a butcher in the village. She even took me to Dinnington school and I keep wonderful memories of the time I spent in Yorshire where the people were so nice and welcoming. The place where the Crossley family lived was called "The Birches". I would be so happy to hear from Jane again and a lot of thanks to the people who could help me in this task. (I live in France.)
My Roots
