Hi Linda,
If you remember, I met you about 6 yrs years ago and told you when I was a young lad mid to late 1950s a young man called Ray Hall lived next door to my best friend Lawrence Morton in Windermere Cres, Hebburn. Ray worked in the shipyards as a joiner/carpenter and what a great fella he was. He always had time for us kids.
There were other families called Hall in Hebburn Ray could be related to.
I think the people who ran Hall's Buses were from Shields that ran their business in Hebburn aswell as Shields.
