Webmaister, some time ago at my request you added St James school (1959) photo to your website. Could you please enter the names as listed in the relevant naming boxes? This would be much appreciated.

I feel I should know more & hopefully will, once to old brain cells slowly get in to gear. Thanks, John

Dear Webmaister, re 1959 St James school pic I have just furnished John Glen with some names for this picture, could you please include my name, I am Raymond Harris no.5 in the front row.

Hi Webmaister, Could you please add three more names to St James Primary School (1959) photo?
# In particular I am keen to have Katherine Pauline's name added; soon after this photo was taken sadly she was run over & killed by a lorry. (Just outside the school gates) The girl on the 3rd row on the left is Katherine Pauline.
On the same row on the far right at the end is Jennifer Cartlidge (Katherine's best friend) Elizabeth Elder is in the second row, third from the end.
