  Dad''s panic
A memory of Huntworth, Somerset

Dad was village copper for several years (our old Police House is now "Peelers" in Thorneydown Road) and had a number of people he got on well with.  He tended not to panic too often but one day a message came through that had him rush out in panic because of the loss of one of his friends, Pat Pocock from the Post Office.

I can't remember the exact year but it was early 1960's.

Later the Post Office was moved to a shop in Thorneydown Road and later still it was taken over by Frank Gaulton who still ran it when we left Winterbourne in 1964.

My place of work. I have done a lot of work on collecting archive photos and making electronic copies of some of the many fascinating letters and articles written by the old girls 1880's to present.

the Town Path
A memory of Salisbury, Wiltshire

Have seen this view many times in my younger days back in the late 1920s and early 30s, just after crossing the footbridge over the river, when on my way to see my dear old gran at Harnham. I can still remember the smell of the old mill.

  Year: 1975 My Grandfather
A memory of Huntworth, Somerset

This is approximately the year when researching my family history that I became aware that there is a plaque in the church for my grandfather, George Reginald Mundy of the Wiltshire Regiment, who was killed in action on 23/7/1916 aged 40.  He left a widow and 5 children, the youngest being only 3 months old.
My grandmother died  in 1932, only 4 years before I was born, and yet I cannot remember any of my grandparents being talked about.
