The Bridge to ALDRIDGE

A brief history of my ALDRIDGE ancestry.

My Photo
Name:
Location: Newton Le Willows, Lancashire, United Kingdom

An only child born on a sunny Saturday afternoon at 2:30pm (is that why I'm so lazy LOL!) at the new Whiston Hospital Maternity Wing (there's press cuttings to prove it). It was the year of the Ox and it was on the cusp of Virgo and Libra (so that's why I can't make up my mind LOL!) Spent the first four years of my life moving around the St Helens area with my parents, finally settling in Newton-Le-Willows and remained there until I was 22, when I decided to try and find my fame and fortune in Manchester. Sadly I wasn't destined to find it there but I had some really great times. Ill health seems to have been the factor which slowed me down after this. I left the bright lights of the city and had a brief spell at my friend Michael's home on the outskirts of Leigh, before moving to Warrington at the end of 2004. I then returned to my "home" town of Newton Le Willows in April 2007 but still spent a fair amount of time in Leigh. I think it has something to do with the "ancestral seat" of Bonny Well, Pennington, Leigh! lol ;-)

Beryl Enid NUGENT (nee LADYMAN)

I am sad to announce the passing of my Aunty Beryl (24th September 1934 - 22nd May 2010) after a long illness.

She taught me the joys of the card game "UNO" and I still play it with friends on our social evenings.

She cooked some fabulous meals for my father and I on many visits and I always remember as a child, the delicious thick bread and real butter I was given, whilst visiting my Gran who was staying with her and my Uncle Len, when my Gran had cancer.

Wish we had had more chance to chat, like we did when the "men" were doing the gardening, well that's what they told us. LOL!

love n hugs x
