If anyone knows of any particular locations or surnames of people please get in touch. Many thanks. |

replied on: 12/21/2006 4:29:38 PM I don't know if this is of any help. There was a family lived on a piece of land at the back of the Charles Napier at Aldercar round about 1952/1955.One of the son's, Tony Smith was in our class at Langley Mill Boy's School. I used to deliver newspapers to the caravans, at first I was a little bit wary but when I got to know them they were very friendly people. PaulR |
