The Ushaw Moor Carnival held in July 1934 had a lot going for it and much fun was had, not least by the proud parents of the following prize winning kiddies:
First Second Third
Category 1 to 6 months Thomas Crooks Dennis Coates Edward Jackson
6 to 12 months Joshua Briggs Daniel Kenny Jack Hill
12 to 18 months Francis Hird Lily Tomlinson Sheila Parkin
18 to 24 months Gordon Mason William Bailey Ethel Carse
First Second Third
Twins up to two years Fred and Audrey Eden George and Edward Rochford Jean and Kenneth Seed
Finally, probably not children

The word 'third' - which refers to the twins competition - is in the wrong place but it relates to Jean and Kenneth Seed. You probably worked that out. I wonder, has this little edit worked? Lists are frequently a problem.
Hi Wilf,
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year. I remember the Seed twins. The Seed family lived in Hall Avenue near the Kavanagh family who moved down to the Midlands for work in the pits.
