Life In Barnet Street

A Memory of Edge Hill.

My name is Raymond Jones I was born in 1942 to David and Winifred Jones of 73 Barnet street my uncle Bernard Morgan and his son Brian lived with us my mother was a confectioner and opened the shop on the corner of Barnet street in 1951. When many of the people in the area got married she did all the catering and she would arrange for friends in the street to wait on at the reception, the wedding cakes she used to make where a work of art. More memories later

Hi,
My Grandad, Albert Andrew Pritchard lived in 13 Barnet Street in 1939, with his Father, Robert Pritchard and his Mother, Sarah Ann Pritchard. I know it's a long shot but if there is anyone with a memory of Barnet Street or who knew the Pritchards I'd be grateful
We are related. Your Grandparents were my mum's grandparents too. My Grandma was Maggie Pritchard. My mum is Alice. Just with her now talking about Barnet St.
