My Ancestors The Ormes
A Memory of Mickleover.
Just found out my grandad was born in Derby and lived at 45 Colville Street with 8 other siblings. Joseph the father worked at Midlands Railway as a wireman. Violet and Blanc worked as weavers. My grandad Bernard enlisted in 1927 with The Royal Engineers so I guess he left Derby soon after. I only know Violet emigrated to Australia, but came back to die. I would love to know if the whole family were buried here and if there are any other Ormes still living there.
