Cambria Street

James O. Clazey and his wife, Charlotte lived at 4 Cambria Street from 1881 to the 1900s. James had been a schoolmaster and does not appear in the 1901 Census so somewhere before that time...he died. Charlotte had a grocer/confectionary business there. At one point, all the children worked in it. Children were: George Oswald Clazey; Ellen Craig Clazey; Oswald Clazey; Maggie Clazey and Charlotte Isabelle Clazey. I do not know how long she remained there. Charlotte remarried in 1915 to Alfred Swaine.

My brother was born here in 1954 and my youngest sister in 1959. Although this was a 2-bedroomed house, we managed. The village was the most fantastic place to grow up: it was a close-knit community and a very safe place to be. As a child the farm cottages at the top of the village were still there and we spent a lot of time in with the animals although we were always very aware and scared of Charlie the ...read more here
