Childhood Memories
I lived in the bungalow behind the stone wall surmounted with a wooden fence at the extreme right of the picture. The main feature in this photo is the Lord Nelson Inn.
Tyne and Wear memories
Hebburn On Tyne
My Grandfather Thomas Hugh Devlin (Tom), retired Fire Commander, was born in Hebburn On Tyne, England on 25th August 1923. If anyone has any photos, information or memories, it would be much appreciated.
Never Did See Tom
Never seen Tom, but I remember his father, Aloysious Devlin, my grandfather, who always was in with the budgies in the aviary, he lived in Campbell Park Road, Hedburn. Also the smell coming from the bone yard and from the coke ovens, and trying to dodge paying the fare on the ferry.
MNy Granmother
Last thoughts, for her, was my father's mother, did see her, I remember in a place called CULTURE HOUSE, next to old police station, just as you come over railway bridge, on left hand side, on the way to JARROW. I think she ran a bed and breakfast. She was called AMELIA GILROY, pure white hair which was long, and blue eyes.
Ellison Street
My grandmother-in-law was born in Ellison Street, - wish I could have a photograph of the street in 1894!
York Avenue
York Avenue is the one road in Jarrow (although I am from Manchester) that I could never forget, it's like a main road into Jarrow, my cousin had a house on York Avenue, it's a road you can a bus to anywhere up the north-east, and to most of the lovely beaches. Primrose
