Hi All
I'm trying to put together some pictures and stories about my family - my dad and his dad before him ran a garage on Shore Road at 265-269, on the corner of Oakmount Drive, at the bottom of Fortwilliam park.
I lived there between approx 1971 and 1975, and had a short stay on Mount Vernon before moving to London in 76.
My dad's family were the Jamisons, he was Ian, his dad was Fred. My grandad and his family hailed from between Bushmills and Giant's causeway.
There used to be two houses with a garage in between at 265-269: now there is a small printer's firm - I believe the houses were knocked down in the late 70's/early 80's.
My dad died in 1984 and my mum suffered a stroke in 1976, and I have very few if any pictures from those days - I would be over the moon to find some pictures of that stretch of shore Road (between Mt Vernon and the football ground), as I have many happy memories of growing up there that I'd love to share with my son, also my mum, who also lived on the Shore Rd previously, in the prefab bungalows (she was a Conway then).
Any leads or info, or even suggestions where I could start tracking down pictures would be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks, Margaret
