I am sure that number 47 is John Bolton.
Number 5, I think it’s Graham Starkly?
No 1 is definitely Gordon Stevens.
I can recognise him because I look
at him every day in the mirror,
when shaving. Does anyone
know what happened to ‘Bobsie’
Victor Hurley No. 2 ?
On the photo of 1958, page 11 of 14, I am number 17 James (Jim) Reilly.
I can confirm number 60 is Robert George Riggs as he is my Dad and he died in 1997 of cancer via asbestosis.
I am the daughter of Ed Burton-Cox (No. 61) – I have stumbled across this photo whilst researching my family tree. Sadly my dad died in 2000 but it would be amazing to hear if anyone has any memories of him.
I’m looking to trace Billy Crowhurst, he is my second cousin. I know he was a police officer for many years. My mother Gillian Moss is his first cousin. Any one know where I can find him?
Dear Brian Cordell (cheekychappie), I can’t remember half; too many knocks on my hard-head!
Bestest wishes to my goodbuddy ’58 ClassMate: Derek Brazier, Cool Dude, ditto U2 Brian, fun then & now. rollon Spring.
Hi Roger. Nice to hear from you. The classic bike event is July 6th if you can make it. I’ll see if Derek Brazier can make it.
Just thinking it’s only about 60 years ago this time of year sledding down from Chataway’s Castle, happy days do you remember?
All the best.
Yeah, I’ll go with you on that number 24 is Brian Payne (did see him in 70’s).
Brian, see you after Easter/July ’14’ at Battlesbrige with my Triple triumph Trident & some Norfolk Boyos,
Nice to see another name dropping in, Eric Perry who was in my year. Last time I remember seeing Eric was when he was friends with Johnny Biggs who had just bought a new white Vespa, I guess about 1963. Happy times.
Roger, I am sure that no 24 is Brian Payne not Michael? All the best to you.
Number 49 is me! Eric Perry. I now live in Norwich.
Number 33 is Fred ? he lived in Royston Ave., just off Wash Road
Hi Richard, are you sure that no 24 is Martin Platt, I think 24 is older than us, but I don’t have a name. I remember Martin appearing in the middle of a school term, he never started in the September, with the rest of us, and as you said He didn’t stay long.
No 46 is John Austin.
No 46 is John Austin, and no 25 is definitely Ernie Siggers
Hi Lesley, no I am definitely not sure about Mart Platt. He did go around with us for a while during the 1959 summer holidays, myself and Mart Brown who I also still can’t place on here. The thing is, No 24 looks exactly like him, even down to that look on his face. If as you say he didn’t start early that year then No 24 can’t be him. He was a brilliant scholar and I think he may have passed 13 plus and moved on. Happy days.
22 is Ray Williamson his dad had a butchers shop in West Horndon
No. 4 is Alan Webster died about 10 years ago.
No 6 Derrick Sorrol
24 = Michael Payne (not Page) [my fingers too Big!]
62 is Nick Logan, notified to me on Twitter by the man himself. 24 is Martin Platt, an ex-Hutton boy only at LHR in the first year Upper 1A 1958-59.
No. 23 is Raymond Cutler who had a sister called Hazel.
62 Nick Logan
24 Martin Platt
No 24 is not Michael Page. He is No 14 on page 12 standing next to Brian Cordell.
38. Mr. Phillips (he was our teacher for French)
Ernie Siggars is 25. What of Coral Hewitt, Roger(bully), Roy Haswell, John Hickford, Derek Brashier & Gillian Yates ???.
“Over 50 years since my Memory Cells thought of 50’s so brain working VG.!”
28 is Roy Haswell (had fight with him). 24 Michael Page?
19 is Chris Gibson.
Hi, He was only known at Primary school as Edwin Cox and I remember him because I was made to sit next to him for the rest of the term/year as a punishment for allegedly talking too much in class!
61 Think this may be Edwin Cox
Linda, thats it Edwin Burton-Cox, he was friends with John Adie, sitting with him, both from the Dunton or Bulphan areas as I recall?
Back again, I think 51 is Maurice Eldridge.
Editor: I will ask him next time I speak to him.
Think 43 maybe Terry White and 51 is Maurice ?
No 21 Micky Bolton
Number 30, Jimmy Doods?
I think no 4 could be Alan Webster
I could be wrong I think No 37 is Raymond Byatt don’t know if the spelling is right.
Definitely 64 David Shirley (oops) 60 Robert Riggs correct.
No 60 could be Robert Riggs, anyone confirm?
I think that no 53 could be George Baily and maybe no 64 is David Shirley not Geoff – can somebody comment? What do you think Rich?
My neighbour Jill Adams (No. 10. Page 2) told me that No 10 Page 11 was her cousin Peter Bailey – she must be mistaken. Sorry about that. Nina
Nina, the Peter Bailey I know from LHR was in my class starting 1959, in fact we had the same birthdate. Could be another Peter Bailey of course.
Number 18 is Tony Matthews. I will ask him to look at this page to see if he can put some more names to faces.
10 Robert Walden? (listed as Peter Bailey by Nina) Hi Richard, no Dongus models – you have some memory!! I can’t help with Mart Platt
No 59 is John Adie, I think, was listed on photo 8/no73
Ken, I thought that lad looked like a Siggers boy too!
Keith, another one you can help on, is it Mart Brown above at 25 standing with Mart Platt? They were always together in the first year. Mart Platt left fairly quickly and moved to a different school. I was great friends with Mart Brown later on in 4x and 5x, we used to go to Basildon Mecca on Sunday evenings. Have you made any Dongus models lately?
HY again, 7 Micheal Taylor, 9 Stanley Quinn, 11 Trevor Spurling, 26 John Thorpe, 27 Peter Georgiadis, 20 David Franklin, 31 Colin Clarke, I thought 25 was Ernie Siggers but someone has tagged him as Mart Brown, not sure which is right.
Whoops! my mistake Ian David Franklin is29 not 20 sorry.
