Southall
A Memory of Southall.
My father was born in Carlyle Gardens in '33. He was a Middlesex then London Fireman.
He married my mum who lived on the other side of the street.
My paternal grandparents (Bradbury & Swain) lived nextdoor to each other in Bankside. My grandfather left his house in about 1916 and returned (severely injured) to work for the Council working in the Town Hall and tarmacing the roads.
His future wife lost both of her brothers in the Great War, one in 1916 & one in 1918.
Lots of my family came from, and some still live in, Southall but I very rarely go back; funerals and weddings....actually not weddings just funerals.
