London & Middlesex Completed Lookup Requests / Re: **enton in Harrow sub district in Hendon district.
« on: Monday 25 May 20 14:45 BST (UK)  »
Hi Carol - great to hear from you. I went to Uxendon Manor and then Kingsbury County 1961-68. I used to go to Kenton Library a lot, but did not know your end of Kenton that well.

I'm researching my early life as I'm attempting my autobiography. I grew up as an only child but found out that I am one of 13!

Hope you and yours are keeping safe in all this! Strange times we live in.

Best wishes

Lynne

Thank you so much for this extra information. Lived in Kenton, Gooseacre Lane, from 1950 to 1970, so have fond memories of walking through there, via Lidding, to get to see my friend's aunts who lived on the corner of Woodgrange Ave. It's all a long time ago, but it was a lovely place to live then.

Do you have any info on when the Gooseacre area was built?

Hope you are OK during this extraordinary time. Stay safe.

I know I'm 15 years too late but I can remember Kenton Grange when I was a child in the 1950s and 60s, being an old people's home then (nowadays a care home!). I was told that in the 1940s and early 1950s there was a model railway which used to go round the perimeter and in the bushes there were marks where the tracks had once been.

Thanks. Much appreciate your reply. Finding the Irish searches harder than the England ones, but people have been very kind, which is appreciated!

So glad you have been in contact. I do have more info and will share all I've got. I'm living about 8 miles from where Christopher was born! We have a mutual friend in Kieran who has helped me a lot. Would much appreciate a copy of Edward's book. How do we swap contact details - do we ask moderators to put us in contact?

Best wishes

Sheila - this is my family too. Can we share details? James was b 1842 and married Honora, also known as Anne, in 1863 in Carlow. Their first son was born in Carlow on 12.7.1864.

Do contact me so we can both find out more. I'm also in contact with 7 other cousins.

Best wishes
