beechnut Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 There's an old thread about Violet May here: http://www.sheffieldforum.co.uk/showthread.php?t=4948 Violet was a real character whom anyone would warm to; she often seemed far more interested in the records than in making a profit. Violet May Barkworth died in August 1995, aged 85. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PopT Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 I used to go to her shop on City Road near Bernard Street with a pal called Ernest Allen. We were both mad keen Jazz fans at the time. I often wonder whatever became of Ernest, I know he was a decent Drummer. He did work as a Fitter at the Grimesthorpe Steel Works and lodged at the back of the Midland station with his in laws with his young wife and baby. He was married at a very early age and I wondered if anyone else on here knew him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
