Hi Graham

Ian Smart is in America until early April and on his return he will contact you. He asks me to tell you that there were a couple of class reunions a few years ago but they were unable to contact you. He has addresses and phone numbers of many of your school pals which you are welcome to.

Sorry to have to tell you that Keith Sleeney has passed on a few years ago.

Ian says that he thinks that you are in the Leeds area

Some years ago I knew the Hoylands of Ecclesfield --there was Bill and Edith on St Michael's Road, and Billy's dad, Tom, lived on The Common. But I am going back a long time. Someone has recently mentioned an Arthur Hoyland of Ecclesfield, but the name doesn't mean anything to me: must be a different branch of the family.

 

My brother, Keith Boon, tells me that Arthur Hoyland was in his class at Ecc Sec Mod.and thinks that he lived in The Common area. He will be 76 if he is still alive.

Arthur Hoyland is my cousin and he is very much alive. You are spot on about his age. He is still in Ecclesfield.
