The Wakeham Family

Much loved by many of us.

Mum Rose with a wonderful sense of humour, Bill the quiet one in a house full off women.

June, the eldest who had beautiful long hair often worn in a plait.

Joan, younger than me but one of my closest friends and so much taller than me. I was so jealous.

Cindy, I did not know so well or the baby Lesley but all very pretty girls.

Here are some photos sent to me by Joan

Pat Laughton, Carol Richards and Joan.

Yes, we really did have tin baths ………… for the garden! In front with Joan is her cousin Elaine

and a little Wakeham in the middle I assume. Always remember the lovely roses in their garden.

Joan receiving a prize from the Carnival queen.

June and Joan, with ringlets, Margaret Mason on the right and Peter Plumridge at the back on the left.

Guess the pantomime? June with the pigtails, can you recognise anyone else?

Joan is recognisable, she is the tallest and the little one first left was called Cousens I think. Help me out with these please.

Do you remember Tony White and his wife who owned the shop at the top of the hill, on the main road. Aptly called WHITES I think.

I was asked to do the Christmas Draw one year but after pulling out several tickets with the name “Boyce” on them, I was relieved of my duties.

 

 

Here is a photo of the Dads at an STC do. See below for a closer look.

I RECOGNISE LOADS OF FACES BUT CAN ONLY REMEMBER A FEW NAMES.

THANKS TO JOAN FORALL THE ABOVE.
