BAILEY 101
Extract from my book of boyhood memories to be published 17 August, ‘The Sunny Side of the House’.
“
Allen Edward Bailey was their first child, born on 9 August 1923, less than nine months after the wedding I understand. Births beginning with Allen’s grandad Albert in 1868 were recorded inside the back cover of the family’s Holy Bible.
“
Allen was my dad, who would have turned 101 tomorrow. The picture below is of ‘Grandad Albert’ and his wife Sarah Ann.
For more details of ‘Sunny’, see my latest book page on this site where you can also find its first three chapters including other photos.
