Hi Bryan I have done some investigation (I hadn't worked on this line for years!)in the indexes. My Thomas was bapt 5 Mar 1738 the 5th child of William HOWES and Elizabeth SEWEL. Your Susannah was bapt 18 Oct 1747 the 7th and last child. William and Elizabeth were married 4 May 1726 in Aston le Wall There was just the one Howes family in Woodford at the time. So we our lines are connected.

I think the expression is "Growing old is inevitable, growing up is optional"! By the way I forgot to mention in recent posts that I live in Nowra, NSW, Australia. The last place I lived in the Banbury area was in Creampot Close in Cropredy. I have fond memories of the Fairport concerts there. By some acoustic freak effect, it seemed louder in our back yard than in the field!

Hi Banbury Lister Friends, Because of my geographical location I see that many of you were able to beat me to it in replying to the List. I loved the banter between the many welknown stalwarts of this list. I nearly put "Old" stalwarts, but then on reflection thought---"Better not"!!! I have learnt something---never knew that the mini skirt could be also called "a pelmet skirt". I was rather more serious in my youth, a bit of a nerd infact, with my sense of humour there, but buried rather deep! I think that I had got too old for that fashion by the time that it emerged, so never wore it---in anycase most older women look dire in too short a skirt, and my legs are on the short side! Thankyou for some light relief. It never harms our researching to be aware of the humour that can be enjoyed in the findings. Luckily this is a list broadminded enough to appreciate that. (Oh how I do dislike po-faced researchers!). Betty, you have got it right---our men folk have all got more than a touch of "the old Adam" inl their make-up, and it seems that Banburyites are richly endowed in that regard. ;>) Enjoy your summer! It is a lovely sunny winter day here, but a trifle nippy in the shade. Regards, Muriel-----NZ.

Hi Marilyn So far I not been able to track down a baptism for my Susannah though on her Marriage entry she was listed as a House and OTP of Woodford. John Jordan & Susannah also lived in Hinton so there is a good chance we may have a connection. Cheers Bryan

Hello Denise, Thanks for your post about the chapel, but the one on Warwick Road - actually No.130 - was a Baptist chapel run by Mr. and Mrs. Elliott who lived at No. 148. I lived at No. 140. More or less opposite the Duke of Wellington pub. From Bob Sangster's description of the Bank, the houses were demolished to make way for the present houses between the Baptist chapel and No. 166 Warwick Road where the Neithrop Hospital started followed by the Workhouse which ran to the bottom of Ruscote Avenue. I know Mold's chapel in Boxhedge Road, very well. My parents were Methodists and sent me off to Sunday School there twice on Sundays from the age of four! I continued until I became a rebellious teenager. I knew all the Molds you mentioned. Margaret married George Jarvis, who was a teacher at the chapel. Kath and Phyllis never married. I remember Phyllis working in Kingerlee's store in Parsons Street - a bit like Mrs. Slocombe in 'Are you being served'! I think Kath worked in Goodenough's the agricultural merchants in the Market Place. In answer to another of your posts, yes I did deliver in Gibbs Road. I worked for Lichfield's newsagents near the canal/railway bridge. I eventually aspired to the dizzy height of head paperboy, which meant starting at 5 am, sorting papers and writing on the numbers ready for the paperboys coming in. Any that didn't turn up I had to deliver their round. I often did the West Street, Gibbs Road, Grimsbury Square round. Also a certain Paul Francis Gadd did the Causeway round and he never came when it was raining! You might know him as Gary Glitter!!! By the way I have a lot of Howes in my tree all descended from William Howes c1788 and Kezziah Brooks c1788-1869. She was the sister of my 3x great grandfather John Brooks 1791-1875. Are you on Genes Reunited? If so I can open my tree for you.

Well I confess that when they mentioned Pelmet Skirts I thought they must be looking in the wrong direction <vbg> (ie up not down) It is apparently a euphemism for a mini skirt , never heard that one before, must be to young :-) Nivard Ovington in Cornwall (UK) PS asked the wife and she knows but there again they always do don't they ;-) >I will confirm that Bob is an incorrigible old flirt. > Pelmet skirts? - don't know, never done skirts/dresses myself - don't have > the legs. > Not that I admire other women wearing skirts either!!!!! > > >> 'Nail on the head', comes to mind.

I will confirm that Bob is an incorrigible old flirt. Pelmet skirts? - don't know, never done skirts/dresses myself - don't have the legs. Not that I admire other women wearing skirts either!!!!! > 'Nail on the head', comes to mind. Yes, you are correct, and Ron is still > involved with the scouts.

"Has somebody been putting something in the coffee in Banbury? Something is? causing the old boys to get frisky!" Nah, always been that way. "Len that is just normal for men of their time!! You know that." Started at Infant school, why spoil a good thing.?Dawn, are you suggesting Len is/was any different? Besides all that, it is nice to see the list can still enjoy a good 'banter'. I think us "men of their time", should all meet up at one of the shopping precinct benches. Would not need any Hunt Edmunds to go/get cross-eyed. Just in case the ladies become jealous, we can allocate different days. Spoil the fun a bit though 8>)) If you have seen the TV series 'Last of the Summer Wine', you would see why?some?call me Compo, (among not so polite names on occasions). Now you can see why I always 'sign off' with that signature! Enjoy Life. Never promise, but will always try. Regards, Bob Sangster

I am still on my cache of vintage Hunt Edmunds. Only 2,000 pints left now though. hic! Did someone say if I grew up..... Never! I like being a kid (at 54). I know our lovely Betty R feels the same! Fairport soon. Three generations of my family will be there. My Grandson (11 y.o.) is going to get a ukulele and play along with them on the song Ukulele Central. (If that sounds stupid, see their?website for details). Still looking for Huckin and variants 18thC (to get back on the genealogical track). Hang the Cats!
