Born in Teddington in 1945. Lived in Clarence Road until 1958, then moved to the "Con Club" in Stanley Road. My brother and I were both in St. Albans Choir along with another pair of brothers, Ian and Cliff Williams, who both now live in Australia. My brother and I live in the USA, Colin in Dallas, Texas and me in Indianapolis, Indiana. Remember Father Simmons and choir master, Norris Marshall. A grand building.
