Hampshire & Isle of Wight / Harwood - Elvetham
« on: Sunday 16 September 12 18:15 BST (UK)  »
Hi,
I have just searched Lomans Hill, Elvetham on Google and have come up with this web chats site and have read a couple of entries re: my Uncle Bunny (known as Son) who lived on the Isle of Wight with his Aunt Rose and a further message re: my Aunt Beddy (Elizabeth Harwood (Betty))  who lived at Lomans Hill.  Her sister my Mum (Ellen Phyllis) and us children moved back there for a short while with her in the late forties early fifties., and again for a short period in 1953-1954. I remember Aunt Ada , Uncle Fred and Eric and their cottage to the left of Lomans Hill.  Aunt Ada gave me my first time  of having beans on toast, didn't like them much then!
It was my sister that did the family tree in 2002-2006 when my mum was still with us, so mum was able to help a great deal. The Harwood boy/man? that was blind, Mum recalled playing cricket with him and others as a child on the common at the back of Lomans Hill, there used to be a bell inside the ball so he knew where it was. Secondly we think that my eldest sister met one of you in the graveyard in Elvetham about a year ago and had she known you were Aunty Ada's daughter she would have loved to have stopped for a long chat.
My sister has lots of information on our direct line and a photo of us with Ada, Eric and the perhaps the farmers son that I think one of you were talking about. He very kindly sent us this via our cousin, don't ask its a small world.
