In this photo taken in 1965 are left to right Ron Kinghorn, Mick Mills, unsure, Jack Cramer and Bob Napier.  Taken outside the electrical workshop.

Should I add the names to your photo and posted it on the Bygone Bedlington group to see if we can get the name of the lad in the middle?

Photo from @Cympil album - Bedlington & Netherton Old Photos. It is thought to be the 1930's as the land behind the shops, Milne Park, is still waste land - Bedlington Mechanics using the land in the early 1950's.

Extract from Cympil's photo identifying the pit rows.

Feel free

Ernie would you match your list of names for the back row with the numbers I have added?

I shared your photo with the much younger brother, James, of an ex BGS lad Joe Stewart. Joe lived in Pioneer Terrace, Bedlington and played football for East Northumberland. Joe would be about 9 years older than me but I remember he was one of the Managers at the Unemployment Office, top floor of the old Co-op building on Station Street. I'm mentioning all this as James says No 1 is his older brother Joe. Do you agree r is it Jim Stewart as you have him named?

No 11 named by Eddie Jones as Alan Cowell.

Thank you Ernie - will post an updated photo if anyone comes up with a missing name.👍

@Ernie Rowe - just noticed your album and photo- right at the end of the albums👍 Have you see the other BGS album?

Would you mind if I shared your photo and see if we can get the two missing names for the back row?

@claire Holmes - I will check on the Cambois Facebook group where the school photo, with Peter Calumboski, was first posted, to see if there are any other photos that have Calumboski family members on.

No doubt @HIGH PIT WILMA will have a search through his memory to see if he has any info on your family.

 

@claire Holmes - If you are on Facebook then you could join the Cambois Facebook group where there are some Calumboski family members :- Michelle Grant  - Rayne Calumboski

Hello

I know this was from a few years ago but I have just found it when searching for information on my family tree. 

Ada and Charlie Calumboski were my great grandparents. My grandmother was Sylvia, one of their children.

I would love to see any more photos as they both passed away before I was born.

Thank You

@Les curry - thanks for the info - I've updated the photo.

I checked through the album and I could only find one other photo with someone call  Curry on it. It's a photo labelled '1953possibly' and No 8 in the photo is named as B. Curry. Could that be a relation of yours?

I played in the 66 Diball Cup final, against Manors School from Heaton. The two legged event ended 5-5 If I remember correctly, so the cup was shared for six months each. Others in the team that I remember were Neil Straker, Keith Lightley, Norman Common, Peter Smart. Alan McNally was goalkeeper and was a year younger.

The name Cunningham strikes a chord with me.  I remember my dad always talking about a Jack Cunningham and a Sally Cunningham.
