Grew up in house from my birth until I married Patricia Douglas from Morwell Bridge, then we lived in Tyers Ave. Mother remained in house until her death. Couple of photos of early days attached - none of the house itself at Narracan Ave - only the one "at the back & garage" and one of mother, self and electricity poles. Immediate Neighbours: Abel; Price; Scholes Nearby Neighbours: General Superintendent at end of street

A wonderful neighbourhood full of kids. Engwells, Frenchs, Coads (Broadway West), Houstons (Church St), Jim Evans (Broadway West, Cox and Backman families (Church St) and Kings in Broadway West. The Roberson family consisted of one boy (Mrs R first marriage) named Graham and twin girls. Graham was doing Yr 11 and I must have been about year 8. He always complained of getting a hard time from his step-father (I remember one complaint being that he had to clean his sisters shoes!!).
