About Me

My grand parents, Joe and Masie Conboy lived at 101 Rothbury Gardens until 1964. I would stay with them on weekends and holidays until 1964 when my family moved to a Canada. I have returned to England many times and have walked Rothbury Gardens wondering what became of the friends I had in the early 1960's.
