Tales My Husband Told Me Reg Merrill
A Memory of Goldthorpe.
Reg died recently in New Zealand where he lived since 1950's He was a child miner (14) in 1944 and I would like to collect a pit check or information of that time. He had fond memories of his life in Goldthorpe, he lived in Goldthorpe Road with his 7 other siblings. We visited there during the 1960's for the first time and continued to visit up to the 2000's when Reg developed Parkinsons. He was the most wonderful, generous and smiling man and loving him was easy. I would love to hear from anyone who remembers the Merrill family as I am writing up a thesis for his grandchildren. His father, William Merrill, played in the brass band (Trombone) probably during the 1940's. Reg enjoyed the dances held locally and was a boxer at the local gym etc thanks for this opportunity.
