@Les Dixon - i think @bluebarby is also in the photo.

@DavidAtStakeford -I don't think there have been any additional names added to Eddie yarrows photos but if there are then they will be in the Album we created for for them. The Album is in Page 2 of the Galley>Historic Bedlington>West Sleekburn Colliery photos. Direct link to the Album :-

@DavidAtStakeford - I can't remember a photo of Joshua Miller with a Napoleon bust. I've checked back through all the Topics (via the search facility at the top right of the screen) using the phrases "Joshua Miller" - " Christopher Bergen" & just the word - bust - but the photo does not get a mention where the Bedlington Ironworks have been discussed.

Np reply back from Jennifer ward re her grandparents so I don't know which one lived in the Toll House. I used a broad search on the FreeBMD site around the years I expected her grandparents to be married and found the marriage registrations, both granda's birth registration but didn't get any matches for their wives.

@Canny lass & @James This is the photop/postcard that @johndawsonjune1955 posted a few years back on the Facebook group Sixtownships History (now the Past Times History group). On the Bygone Bedlington Facebook group a member - Janet Ward posted the following two photos. And I asked her if she had any names. I have enlarged Janet's two photos.

My seven decades plus on this planet have been relaxing. I wasn't ferreting information, just putting my thoughts out into the open discussion. As I didn't attend Westridge I rely on Symptoms - Ovalteeny - High Pit Wilma and Canny lass to supply me any info I may be looking for. Hopefully I can now include you to help with any names we are still looking for to add to the Westridge class photos we have posted in the Westridge album in the Gallery section. Eggy

@Jenks1957

@Symptoms - when I saw the name 'SPUGGY' in TGH's comment above and your name tag 'Symptoms' was used I thought I heard it before so I did a search and I saw there was a member with the name tag 'Spuggy' that had joined this group back in 2016. I assume 'TGH' & 'Spuggy' are the same person. I also checked the Westridge Gallery Album but couldn't find a match in it. Was TGH/Spuggy involved with the Karting Club?

@TGH my raison d'etre =my dad survived WWII and came home to my mam. @Symptoms - I look forward to your reply to Spuggy's posting - but please don't have as much line spacing Answer = The Edict of Expulsion - expelling all Jews from England

Cheers @Maggie/915👍

@Maggie/915 - is Thomas Davison someone the Bedlingtonshire Local History Society might have reference to and be able to give Michael some links to documentation?

Nooo - our house😊

That's when The Carpenters were active 1969-83. Karen was born March 2nd 1953😊

I can't help you Michael. Apart from the entry on the DMM and your comment of -' mentioned in a booked called "A History of Northumberland' I haven't seen his name mentioned anywhere.
