Hi I was born on the island in 1945 and lived there until my 20s. I found these photos facinating. On the picurtures of Minister a Pauline Reay said she had a grandfather called Frederick Ribbens and another gf called Frederick Barlow. Frederick Barlow was my father and I have been trying to contact my family. If anyone knows the whereabouts of Pauline Reay can they contact me on derek@barlow930.orangehome.co.uk.

Have just found this excellent site, I was attracted to it because I am researching my family who spent a lot of their early years in Kent. My G.G.Grandfather(Middleton)was a carpenter at Sheerness Dockyard from about 1830 until he retired in the 1870s/1880s. He was married in "Minster Parish Church" in 1838 and it looks as though the family lived in No.12 West Street,"Bluetown" until about 1880. I think his Son and Grandson also worked in the Dockyard. Would love to hear from anyone who may have any connection / info or knows if the house in West Street is still there.

This is a great site. My great-grandfather was a P.C in the Metropolitan Police in Sheerness Dockyard in the 1850s. I wonder whether anyone has any pictures or information about the Dockyard police at that time. He was a Woodland. Does anyone remember the Woodlands and Paytons who lived at the Halfway?

Does anybody have any information about the Ormsby family who lived in Delamark Road and Fonblanque from 1870's onward? They were soldiers and draughtsmen, and 2 daughters married Dutchmen, and 2 daughters went to teach English in Russia. Are there any old pics of Delamark or Fonblanque Rd?

Does anyone know the STANTON family who lived in VICTORIA STREET 1964ish but originated from BLUE TOWN.Any information or photographs especially from the 1900s onwards would be gratefully appreciated.

I would like to hear from the David who lived in Denis terrace Minster. Ilived in Baldwin Rd from 1943-1962. Married and lived in Filer rd halfway then moved to Cornwall... Many happy memories of the Island. The War, finding hand grenades on the cliffs. Swimming in the murky brown water- what a contrast to Cornwall. I recall a long list of names from my childhood, my next door neighbours Kathleen,Garrick and William Dalgleish. Ron Jeffries, Paddy Bartholomew, Clive and Roger Woollett,Dave Macey, Joe Grose (With whom I have since had contact)Paeter Fennel, Mick Harris, Ron Phillips.. Anybody out there? Dave Whiddett. Now in Dorset.

My great grandmother was born in Blue Town in 1888 and married at St Paul's in 1911. The family name had been Richardson but for some reason changed their name to Watson around the mid 1980s. They lived in Hope Street and later Rose Street. Grace Waston's mother was a Rosetta Sams and I have thought that she may have been Jewish (although her husband probably wasn't). I've now seen that there was a synagogue in Hope Street, so I guess that adds some weight to the theory. Grace's father, George Robert worked as a labourer in the navel dockyard. Grace married a soldier based in the barracks in(?) Blue Town and one of her sisters owned a boarding house in Blue Town also.

I too have been trying to locate a photo of the dockyard workers going home to lunch on their bikes. Can't believe there isn't one somewhere! As a young school girl I remember that sight; and quite a sight it was. The canteen must have been bad (if one existed) for loads of dockers to take the trouble of cycling home and back like that. Good site by the way - I enjoyed it. Keep going - Sheppey's past is worth remembering.

Trevor Can I ask your viewers if anyone has a photo of the dockyard workers who used to stream up the High St on their bikes from the dockyard. We have at the Heritage Centre an old bike. We would like a pic to go with it. Paul
