A James Nummy, his wife Sarah Elizabeth (Nee McKee)and their son Jim who was a postman, who may have premeditated his own death. Would love to get more accurate dates for each death.
Jim may have lived and died in Edward Street

Hi boys - you know who the message is for (being cryptic today). Ran into Gocco and Terry Davie who were both asking for you (told me to mention something about money owed from Bolton results) Goldie - were you here and gone while I was on my hols in Salou, had a great time definitely did not miss Newry. Sorry short message today the coach has arrived for Croke Park where there is a match on (don't know if you heard about it) but have to support my County and all that. PS Wigger are you still playing music or have you finished with the big time. God bless Val and Sheila

Hello again Val,I'm glad to hear Sim is still on the go,I think he's like me,we're dyeing our hair grey!! I suppose you're doing the same<g>. It's true what you say about the funerals,it's the only time you will get me in the chapel and I've been there quite a few times these past five years. I was home about two years ago,but I was on the pledge!,first time in forty years,so I didn't get to see Blue,because you know what would have happened!!only stayed for three days...Imight be home in October,so I'll see you then and we can have a few bevy's and a bit of the auld time cráic....whaddayasay....OK..keep in touch...

Our Seamus is still disappeared there have been other seaches for him but with no success. Enjoyed reading comments about Old Newry and viewing the photos. Anything about Ballybot out there?

Ossie - will I see you when you are home for the wedding - will you be allowed out to play - bring plenty of money with you we're all broke over here what with the recession and all (it's been going on for the last 50 years, we just didn't know about it until the English told us, now we are all down in the dumps). Wish they hadn't told us - we were ignorant and happy. Told Sheila and the boys that I am heading for Holyhead for the boat back to England to see if I can find work - don't confuse this as a begging letter - you have to have a laugh! Hope to see you when you come home Val and Sheila.

Wigger, I see Sim now and again walking across the Stone Bridge heading for the Maple Leaf in Canal St, haven't spoken to him for a while - he is moving slowly but at least he is still able to get about. I don't know if you are still in touch with Blue haven't seen him for a year or so. Do you get up to Milton Keynes at all or do you not bother. Gerald McGovern was home - saw him briefly - I think he also goes to visit his sister in London. I was at a funeral the other day with Teddy, it's the only time I see him - I think that is the only time I see anyone, we are getting to that age - we go to more funerals than weddings. Take care.
Val

I left Newry in 1970 and have lived in France for most of my life .Strange to think that I have lived abroad for 40 years and yet still refer to Newry as home.I played football for Bessbrook Boys,Rockview,Nerwry Town(very short career) Carnbane Youth and Park United.Never was any good but it took me a long time to realise the evident.Fond memories of the Newry that was and enjoy going back to visit family and friends.Often think of my French teacher who constantly told me I was a waste of space.40 years on ,a lifetime in France.what an inspiration she proved to be!Fair play to you for your site.

I was just wondering recently about how may of my peers from 1969 school leavers stayed around Newry. I was friends with a lot of girls from Our Ladies and the Sacred Heart. There were also the guys from the Abbey. Its just that when I do go to Newry to see my Mum I rarely bump into anyone I know. Hill Street on a Saturday used to be the place for all friends to meet.

Ossie what's this wedding you are going to - will you pop up to Newry? Do you know that John McGivern is dead - I presume Gocco will have told you. When you are over give us a shout - my number is in the book. Would love to see you when you are over. bye

Well Wigger, are you still in Harlesdon, Wilsdon or Kilburn - you are a hard man to keep track of. Do you want the obituary column or will I not bother. There are not many of us left, so it's nice to know you are still out there. Is Anne still in Milton Keynes and is Marie still in London. Would love to hear from them.
