Peter Moseley married Linda Firth, his sister Josie married an old school pal of mine, Michael O'Sullivan. Do you remember Mervyn Nichols, I think he lived on Franklin Street.

deeda Posted November 9, 2015 Share Posted November 9, 2015 looking to hear from oscar215,i believe we grew up on the same street.if hes still using the forum I would like to hear from him.Picking through the threads it sounds as though the old school (sharrow lane) is now something other than a school.Idont get back to Sheffield much now but would like to hear from anyone who lived on franklin street or attended Sharrow lane 1952 onwards.

deeda Posted November 10, 2015 Share Posted November 10, 2015 Hi David ,i guessed you would know me, seems all the other guys who lived on franklin street are scattered to the four winds, sister Vicky still lives in Sheffield (woodseats). Stans wife is still with us but we lost Stan ,Norman and Betty a few years ago. I moved to Dudley 45 Years ago and started my own business, retired well semi a couple of years ago. I don't get back all that often these days but when I do it never seems to amaze me the way things have changed not for the better most times. Whats happened to sharrow lane school? I seem to remember a school reunion being arranged a few years ago but I was working overseas ,looking back it seems I spent more time in other peoples countries than I did my own LOL. any way good to know someone is trying to keep franklin street alive. Yes keep in touch they were hard but happy days.: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
