The photograph is annotated with the following:
Ray says “I scanned this Polaroid picture of the Dinner Ladies at Carlin How primary School (long before it was called Whitecliff) – It was taken circa 1967, well before meals were cooked on the premises, in them days as you may remember all School meals were cooked at the central kitchens in Loftus.
they are Left to Right – Audrey Sweeney, Marion Sayers, Kath Lancaster, Annie Dyer, Jean Cook and Rose Partlett”. (Saves me having to write the byeline! – rodders) (image courtesy of Raymond Brown)
Here’s a scene from Child Street, Brotton, with the local children dressed up as king and courtiers for the 1935 Jubilee Celebrations. Julie tells us ”oops sorry forgot to tell you the names. The three sat at the front from left to right are:Peggy Harben, Dorothy Kershaw, Matt Theaker (image courtesy of Julie Riddiough)
This is Elizabeth (Betty) Ferrer in what I think will be the new labs at Skinningrove Iron and Steel Works, after they moved out of the labs under the water tower on the cliff edge. I first met Betty in 1963 when I joined Skinningrove Iron and Steel Works as a Junior Chemist and I think I joined the rest of the Junior Chemists in having a crush on her! I don’t think I ever saw her in the lab as such, she had her own little section next door to Mr. E F (Effie) Brown’s office, where I believe she performed water analysis on Oil samples – my memory is very hazy on that aspect of lab life, so please correct me Betty.

This Photo shows the Money family in the 1920’s ( I think) what the family gathering was for I do not know but it shows all the Money’s, from L toR :- Edward Isaac (Ted), Margaret (Meg), Violet (Vi), Ivy, John (Jack), Louisa (Lou), William (Will), Florence (Flo), James Verrill (Jim born before marriage) Mary, William Tyers, (father) Mary Ann,(mother) known as Polly, Sarah (Sal). William Money came to the Loftus area from Barrowby in Lincolshire between 1871 and 1881 with his wife Mary and his sons, William Tyers aged 20, John Henry 15 and Edward 13. ( taken from the 1881 census) They came here for the work in the ironstone mines and before their arrival there were no other Money’s in this area that I can find, please correct me if you know better. Edward moved to Bishop Auckland (1891 census) and John Henry emigrated to Australia married and had a family there. So most people named Money in this area came from someone in the above photo. I have been checking my file and it shows that William Money and Mary Ann Verrill (yes a Verrill from Staithes) were married in 1887 so I think the photo would be on the anniversary of their 40th wedding anniversary in 1927. Can you believe that in 1911 (as shown on the 1911 census)that William, Mary Ann and 10 of their children were all living in 28 St Hilda’s Terrace Loftus, how did they manage? I bet they were glad when their children got married and they had the house to themselves to live out their retirement in. How about this for a guess? Picture taken outside 34 Hartington Street! Could be Norman there or St Hilda’s Terrace.
A good turn out for this children’s fancy dress. Jean Sayers is the little girl in the front with the kettle (Polly put the kettle on). Reg Dunning says ”5th from the left at the back is Sheila Bennison and the nurse on the back row is Hilary Jackson”. Thanks for that Reg, the names list for this is going to be a big one! – rodders
