Thank you for this walk down memory lane, used to watch Morgan & Dean In the tute on a sunday night when I was a kid, Born and raised Dock Rd, Rest in peace Ronnie Charles Barnes 1927-2002 / Iris Catherine Alice Barnes 1929 - 2022 / Ronda Camilla Barnes 1967 - 2023 ❤
I remember Buddy Goyette his wife Ivey and there son Paul a couple of years older than me. A lovely family liked by everyone. Buddy was a man to aspire to be like as he was always working hard but had so much to show for his labours. His son Paul was also hard working and nearly made it into professional football.
Whoa this is amazing! The old pictures, the stories from the elders and seeing Tilbury as it is now. I lived there from 1960-1987 and my Dads family lived in and around the area for years before. Annie Obrien - can I ask you questions - I've got so many to ask you?
Oh yeah and a mate of mine lived in the Railway cottages mentioned right at the the start, I must have been about 5 years old and used to go over a footbridge just down the road from Tilbury hospital on St Andrews road and have tea at his house. They must have been knocked down in about 65/66? His name was Tom Webb.
Gutted you didn't have old pic's of Kipling Avenue! Live there from 65-70, then moved to South View Avenue 70-74, then Adelaide Rod 74-79 and then the masionettes in Wellington Rd, 79-87. Live in Perth house as well early 60's.
Those maisonettes in Sydney Road look familiar. I lived there from 1968-72 in a maisonette run by the electricity board as dad worked at both Tilbury ‘A’ & ‘B’ Power Stations. The Stella Maris seamen’s mission was adjacent.
Brilliant work. Should be taught in the schools of our local history
