Readers help wanted
Hi, I'm Michael
Green, an Australian. I'll be coming to
the UK in March, and would like information about my mother's
family, who I lost contact with in the early 1960's. My mother
(Cecilia REES) and her family lived at 31 Virginia Rd Shoreditch
(from where they ran a corner store). She married my father, an
Australian serviceman, during WW2, and moved to Australia.
Specifically I am seeking info on her brother and sister-in-law
(Mickey and Frances Rees-possibly both deceased by now) and their
son Leonard (Lenie), whose Bar Mitzvah in London I attended in 1961.
I would be grateful if anyone has any information

My
name is Ken Blake. Would anyone have any memories of Stepney Jewish
School, Beaumont Club (inc. Drama and Operatic Groups), Stepney,
Mile End, Poplar, Folkestone Club holidays, people, me etc from the
1960s that they would like to share with me? If so, please email
kenblake@orange.net
My name is Marc Mendoza and my Father, Charles Daniel Mendoza
(born 1925) grew up in the East End, went to Stepney Jewish
School and, with his brothers Lewis (Lulu), Michael & Issy was
well known in the area.
I would love to meet or speak with anyone that knew him or his
family as I'm keen to find out more about his life in the East
End. Email in first instance to
marc.mendoza@mpg.com
Looking for photos or information about
Hogarth Houses, Batty Street E1, where my mother and
grandparents lived around 1915-1918. Please email

I'm
a past East End Brady Club member and am in the process
of compiling articles for a book to do with Brady days. I am
seeking reminiscences, fond and personal memories and any
recollections to do with Brady such as your time as a Brady
member, Skeet, Club holidays etc.etc., say from 1930s/1940s
to about the 1960s.
With many thanks,
Barbara

Do any readers remember the Willie Stephanie/Stephany
Dance Band before the last war?
My late father Barnett
Shoffren
played piano accordion with them, but I am unable to trace
any
information about the band. I would appreciate any memories
or
email copies of photos (but please do not part
with original photos).
Hoping someone can help me.
Yours sincerely,
