Hi Alison
Pleased you liked my Blog.Do you still live in Airedale?
Barbara
Hi Barbara. My father lived in Airedale as a boy, he was a miner before joining the Royal Engineers and serving in WW2. He was only 19 when he was evacuated from Dunkirk. My mum was from Berkshire, they lived in Castleford for some years after getting married and used to take the youth club from Holy Cross on camping trips. They eventually moved back down here to Berkshire and that’s where we’ve grown up. His brother Maurice, on the Roll of Honour, was a bit older than him, his daughter Jean still lives in the area but she was only a very young girl when Maurice died.
Hi Alison
My granddaughter lives in Berkshire.
