Lane -Jones - Family Photographs |
We have received from Shirley Sharpe (nee Lane) a collection of photographs of the 'Lane & Jones' families, which are sure to bring back memories to the many people who knew them during their residence in Summerhill Road.
Shirley and her sister Norma were cousins of Ron and Geoff Jones and lived in Summerhill Road. Firstly at number 14 and then at number 10a when their house suffered bomb damage in the war. They subsequently moved to Tynemouth Road but Shirley and Norma still spent some considerable time at Summerhill Road visiting their Grandmother and Aunt at number 10a. Both Shirley and Norma have written their own Summerhill memories that can also be read in the 'Residents' section.
However this section features the photographs of both the 'Lanes' and the 'Jones' family and we are indebted to Shirley Sharpe (nee Lane) for providing them for publication on the website.
