Hi Santanta, I'm Olwens "Big Brother" and we lived in River street. Jolt the aul memory?
Santanta
Olwen, So my old memory is not gone after all. I know what but do you know why? I also recall a young woman called Olwen (but not McLeod) who did great justice to the mini skirt! An impression that lasts nearly 50 yrs....now that is an impression!
Ed
I would!
Olwen McLeod
You are correct Santana there is indeed a connection - do you know what it is or would you like me to tell you?
Santanta
I remember Leon Scott as a very pretty extremely talented singer and am delighted to hear about her success and increasing recognition...even better that she is with my dear school friend Liam. Nice to hear also about Harry J and Patricia...but here is my question...is there a connection between Patricia and a dried up river bed or is my old memory playing tricks?
Patricia McGuigan
Many thanks for posting the pics of the demolishing of Sinclair St, a very sad day. My grandparents reared 9 children in this street, at no 13. My Granny lived there until her death in 1979.
Editor
Many thanks to those who persisted with Journal through the recent speed problem! Solved now.
Olwen McLeod
Many thanks Editor. I appreciate your response. It's great to know that Leon is doing vey well - she has got a brilliant singing voice.
Michael McEvoy
Hello Vinmac and dorrien rose. You are both right. Thanks to the editor for the information and if you happen to see any of my old pals, give them my regards.
Editor
OK Olwyn, here goes. Liam McCrum is about town, married to Leon Scott who's had recognition at last for her fantastic singing voice, doing world tours with the likes of Van the Man and Daniel O'Donnell (NO! NOT at the same time!!??!!) : Kieran Kinney is about too - not long ago his son married the daughter of my mate Peter Donaghy: Marty McConville is teaching and living in Portrush : Sean Flanagan (brother of my friend Brendan) is Principal of a school in Lurgan and lives in Warrenpoint : Harry Johnston too is a teacher in St Mary's ; the lovely Siobhan is now a mother in her own right! Enough?
Olwen McLeod
Please, someone answer Michaels's request as I would love to know any information on Benny Connor, Donal Cassidy, Philip Connaughton. I know Harry Johnston married my dear friend Patricia McMahon and the last time I seen Hatty and Patricia they had a beautiful daughter, Siobhan. Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
Vinmac
Michael McEvoy - did you have a sister called Margaret?

To Hugh Farrell;
Thankyou Hugh, for your email.Yes I do remember you and your Mum and Dad. Hope both are keeping well.
I was over at a family get together last August in Armagh. Drove to Newry and had a walk up Cecil St. I still remember the fantastic times we all had as kids. I still want to retire in Newry. Sadly, I lost my sister Joyce a couple of years ago to cancer. I now live and work in Sydney Australia but, go home to Scotland and Ireland at least every two years.
I love this web site as it brings back the memories.
Please keep in touch and let me know how everyone is doing. Once again, thankyou.
Hugh Farrell
To Pat Digby,
Hi Pat I do not know if you can remember me, I remember you & Joyce coming to stay at your aunt Maggies house. There is very few of the the people you would remember still living at Cecil St.
My mum & dad No 50, Mrs Grant (Sean & Kieran's mum)No 22, and Mrs McCoy (paul's) mum No 14. Everybody else has move on but I would see most of them fom time to time...Peter Mallon, Charlie Feris, was talking to sean & Kieran at a family get to gether about a week ago. Hope you are keeping well and I will talk to you again

Martin, thanks for the info on Joey. As Brian said we lived at #11 Derrybeg Drive - that should fill a gap in the Derrybeg Drive page.
