 I am guessing it is a retirement because of the clock, but who, where and when. We are told by George Tremain: “The man on the far right at back wearing glasses is Stanley George Agar. He was the cousin of my father Claude Tremain.” Whilst Norman Patton has advised the Archive: “Eighth from the left, at the back, is ‘Tie Pin’ Ted Winspear who was one of the Liverton Mines Winspear family!”  A party held to celebrate the Coronation of King George VI, in 1937 at the Skinningrove Institute. letting their hair down were; Stewart Dixon advised: “Mona Maddren sitting front row is my 1st cousin 3x removed. This was two years before she became Mrs Pascoe after marrying John Pascoe. I’m guessing the Maddren in the middle row is her mother, Lottie Maddren (nee Boyers). She will have been 21 years in this picture. Mona’s father, Samuel Maddren died in 1918 in France and Flanders when she was 2 years old.” Image and information courtesy of Eileen and Danny Found; thanks to Stewart Dixon for the update.  Looks like they could do with some help from the bystanders. We know it’s Skinningrove and possibly part of the Boatmen’s Gala, but who are the people? Colin Hart also advises us: ”Second from front my dad Alan Hart, last man looks like Frank Tyreman.”  I think I am right saying once again that this is Skinningrove and I can hear the groan now as once again I ask for names, don’t blame me Colin Hart loaned us the photograph but gave no names. Barbara McBurney tells us: ”The lady on the left in the overall is Aunt Mag Halton, she lived on New Company Row where the photo was taken, a lovely happy lady, always had a smile on her face, I used to visit her, she very often came into the shop on New Company Row where I lived.” Pat Sparkes adds: “The lady walking along with the children wearing a head scarf looks like Olive Frampton.” Image courtesy of Colin Hart; thanks to Barbara McBurney and Pat Sparkes for the updates.  When Colin Hart loaned us this photograph he did tell us it was 1945 and gave us the names Dot and Doris Hick but who was the other lady? Pamlyn asks: “Do you know if they were related to Pauline Hick?” Image and names courtesy of Colin Hart, thanks to Pamlyn for the update.  Skinningrove people relaxing, Colin Hart tells us: ”First left Cilla Ebbs, Mary Hart (my gran), ??, Alan Hart (my dad), ??, Bob Hart (my grandad). Notice in the back ground the Mortuary or Dead House as we knew it as kids.” Can anybody help with the missing names? Image courtesy of Colin Hart and to Colin Hart for naming most of those present.  Mary Hart, Cilla Hart and Emily, but who is the other lady? Image courtesy of Colin Hart.  Six ladies sitting outside the fisherman’s hut at the bottom of Bothroyd’s Bank. There were no names given to us when Colin Hart loaned us the photograph,we now have most (assuming I have got it in the correct order?), we can we now fill in the ??’s. Left to right: Pru Sherwood, Phyllis Green , ? Green, Emily Hart, Cilla Ebbs (nee Hart), Violet Cox. Image courtesy of Colin Hart and thanks to Barbara McBurney, Margaret Fotheringham, Colin Hart and Maureen Howard for the updates.  Were you one of the girls here? I am presuming it was Skinningrove Carnival unless you tell me differently.
Sir Charles was seen as a great benefactor both locally (he lived at Grinkle Hall, Grinkle Park – now a hotel) and at Jesmond, near Newcastle. This is the second postcard view of the funeral on March the 7th, 1907 filled the little church at Easington, which he had erected as a memorial for his wife. This postcard view of the event was also produced by Cattani of Redcar. |
