fixit4u Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 There are 5 of us girls that were in the Beatson family. All except me all went to Rainbow Forge and Carterlodge. Their ages are 55, 59, 61 and 62. My 2 elder sisters both married lads from Beighton, one from Robin Lane and the other from Norcroft Cottages. The eldest divorced and remarried but the other is still married to 'Wag' from Norcroft. We lived at Carr Forge Close but my nan lived at Beighton, across from Norcroft Cottages.

JuneLambert Posted July 30, 2009 Author Share Posted July 30, 2009 Hi fixit4u Chances are I know your brothers in law then. I remember Norcroft Cottages well. I didn't know all the families who lived there but did know of some. Did you know any of the Tann's from Hackenthorpe? They are my cousins on my dad's side of the family. Patrick, Kate and David Tann - or any of the Lamberts? JuneLambert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fixit4u Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 Hi june, saw my sister yesterday and told her about this post, yes she remembers you well. She said you and her worked together, your first jobs together, her name is sheila, does it ring any bells? Also she says did one of your brothers used to live on Broadfield Road in sheffield?

JuneLambert Posted August 2, 2009 Author Share Posted August 2, 2009 Hi fixit4u Yes, I think I remember your sister. We worked at Shelley's bakery in Beighton after leaving school - our first jobs!

There was yourself, sheila and kath beatson and sheila craig, she says do you remember it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JuneLambert Posted August 11, 2009 Author Share Posted August 11, 2009 Hi fixit4u, I can't say that I do remember the photo being taken. What is Charlie's second name....I may remember him too. Was he a Beighton lad? I'd love to have a copy of the photo. Do they still have it? Was it taken at Shelley's or somewhere else? Where did Sheila and Kath live when they were young? Did they live at the top end of Beighton? I do remember Sheila Craig. Thanks JUneLambert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JuneLambert Posted August 12, 2009 Author Share Posted August 12, 2009 Hi fixit4u Yes, I vaguely remember the 'Storey's. My brothers are John and Richard and yes, I used to live on Victoria Road for a while in the flats. I wonder if there is any way of me getting a copy of the photo without breaking confidentiality......don't know how this works.
