Hi
Gary
I
am writing to you in response to the request for information about the
little girl Jean Shillingford who lived for a while with Jessie
Midgley.
Jessie Midgley
was my mother. (My name is Joy). I lived at 37 Hill Top
Brierley until I was 18, then left to go to York university. I then
married and did not go back to live in Brierley though of course I
visited mum and dad (Jim Midgley). Dad died very suddenly in
1985 and after a couple of years mum had a stroke and eventually left
Hill Top to live in Grange House. I remember her talking about
Jean when I was at home though I do not really know any thing about her.
Mum had her for about 2 years I think and always spoke very fondly of
her. She took her back to London and I believe she came from the Pimlico
area, but that is all I know.
I
have looked at the photos on the site and it has been quite an emotional
experience. I didn't think I remembered a lot about Brierley but it all
came flooding back.
Mum
lived in Brierley all her life; she was born in some old cottages on the
road down to the Park on the left hand side of the road. I can't
remember what they were called. Her maiden name was Steele.
There is a photo of Ronald and Joan Steele on the site, they were her
cousins. When she was 3 she moved with her father, brother Leslie,
and her great aunt and great grandmother to 32 Hill Top just after
the houses were built. She was married from there to Jim Midgley in
1937. A few years later they moved to 37. Leslie was missing
presumed killed in the war. He was in Burma but his death was never
confirmed. After I left home a smaller house was needed so they moved
back to number 32!
I
do have a few photos of Brierley. Would you like them for the site?
If I sent them would you be able return them?
Best
Wishes
Joy
Ford (nee Midgley)
