Hopedean, Elswick
A Memory of Elswick.
I was born at hopedean in elswick 1953. My mothers name was Eva may haddock. I wasn’t adopted but placed in a children’s home in hebburn when I had just turned 4 years of age. All my brothers and sisters were all adopted but I was the only one who wasn’t for some reason. I take it my mother resisted on me being adopted as well although I don’t know why. Unfortunately my mother died in 2002 I believe, and as I never had anything to do with her all my life I don’t know what happened. I left Hebburn when I was 17 and joined the military and was in the forces for many years, I moved around the country and abroad and never met my mother again.
