replied on: 10/1/2004 8:53:54 AM Will have a go at identifying him.The organ at the chaple was a large one and to my memory of good quality.Albert was a very good player and my grandmother who played the organ at a chaple at Pyehill took every opportunity to come and listen to him play. If of interest the main Benefactor to the Chaple at that time was the owner of Pickersgill and Frost. |

replied on: 10/2/2004 7:53:53 AM Here's the photo refered to by Kev. Is it Albert Angell, and just as importantly, is it the organ at Langley Mill Wesleyan Chapel. (I can't help thinking that the Angells should be a separate topic but the system doesn't let me move individual posts from one subject heading to another!)

replied on: 10/20/2004 3:33:12 PM you have a great memory of the streets! It's reminded me of a few things. By the way before the haulage firm was there that space was a land-fill tip - it stank too! Yes, we called the beer-off 'Pies' too! There was at one time a cobbler towards the church end of North street, and the 3 streets just before that were in local usage 'the puzzle'. I used to deliver newspapers around there for a few years - the paper used often to get recycled as curtains! |

replied on: 1/16/2005 10:18:48 PM Kinza Happy New Year to you and yours too. This weekend I've been sorting out a few old slides from the Society's collection, and have seen a couple which include East View Terrace - when I get the chance, I will get one posted onto here or the main site. There are worse places than Langley Mill - much worse!!!! Robert |

replied on: 1/19/2005 8:34:30 PM There's the canal! That's what we used to think the sea looked like! Joking apart-the canal basin is greatly improved. I still see langley Mill through the eyes of a child-and it was great growing up there. Everyone knew each other-but who's to say they don't today. The children still have the rec! A few months ago we walked along the Street where I grew up and had a look at old haunts-not much of that part has changed-but then i was wearing my rose tinted specs! |

replied on: 1/19/2005 8:50:10 PM Back on topic-I can remember most of the families who lived near to me-Hemsley, Buckley, Smith, Wilson, Thornhill, Phillips, Butler, Trublood, Teather, Hutchinson, Rogers, Brown, Wooley, Boam, Ellis.I also remember the Mee family on Cromford road-not Robert Mee, but Johnny Mee! Anyone got any recollections about these families? |

replied on: 1/19/2005 11:11:39 PM Yes, i knew a Johnny Mee. Went to school with him before we became Loui's members. That's if your John Mee later moved to Peacock Town. He became a miner, then later, around the mid 1970s, ran the corner shop with his wife at Marlpool. Do you think he's one and the same? Azzabuv. |
