  1. Hello Canny lass, thanks again for your reply. Dads name was Ian Sidney Mills born 31 October 1920
  2. Hi again, i don’t recognise any of the names in your previous post even though my dad lived at no15 which I should think was next door. Two families living next door to each other with the same name would sort of suggest that they may have been related. As I said before my dad was really secretive about his upbringing and his family. It’s almost as if he wanted to forget about where he came from. He went down south when he joined the RAF in the Second World War. His brother ,my uncle Basil also went south, he joined the navy and was in the Special Boat Service. Uncle Baz and their sister Hazel never really lost their accents but my dad lost most of his. Thanks for all your information,it’s really appreciated
  3. Hello everyone My name is Allan and I currently live in Normandy,France. I am going to visit Netherton in March next year as my Father was born at 15, Second Street in 1920. Sadly Dad is no longer with us, he passed away in 2017 aged 96. I don’t know much about my dads childhood so thought I would come and have a look around. I understand that the collery houses are long since gone though. If anyone can suggest places to visit,it would be much appreciated.Thanks
