-My house isn't there yet - 108 Sinclair
-Our house on Raylawn is there
- right next door
-And we were the other next door.
-And if you look in the field behind our houses, you can see the skating rinks. I didn't think they were there that early, guess they were.
-wow and our dads worked hard on those rinks. Wasn’t there one closer to our houses?
-They were up a few houses from us.....right behind the Taylors and Darbys houses. there were 2 rinks, later they built a shed to change skates etc, but somehow it got set on fire and burnt.
-That field at the end of the plaza had church revival meetings and travelling circuses.
-The cluster of trees in the corner of that field were chestnuts.
-THAT is one GREAT PICTURE the spot botton of this is where i helped to move DR, MAC. HOME FROM I believe that was the CLIEVE farm
-The Cleave farm comprised downtown G’town to Moore Park, Main Street to Trafalgar Road, back in the 50s.
-I was 7 years old at that time, we move to Georgetown in 1955.
-That’s my neighbourhood. I was 8. Note: no George Kennedy PS. We walked to Harrison, no buses
-Kennedy school is there. Top centre of pic. Opened in 59. I walked to Harrison for grade 1. Grade 2 in Kennedy in 59
-I see it now. It was a brutal walk wasn’t it?
-Uphill both ways.....lol
-We used to get a ride sometimes in the back of Kenny Langs fathers panel truck.....about 10 of us rolling around back there.
-Ha ha!! And I the long trek to Wrigglesworth before Harrison was built ('56-'57) - we even did morning and afternoon shifts because it was so crowded. I remember some of the Kennedy kids at Harrison before it was built
-Wow 😮 I love this picture! I was born in 1961 and I was raised on Duncan Drive since 1962! What a memory!
- I used to walk along the path to the plaza back then
-Great photo! Before Masson Motors and Beaver Lumber! I remember that path from the plaza. It had a little drop off that was fun to jump with a bike.
-I think I remember a path coming out on to Sinclair opposite the intersection with Duncan.
-And the path led to Eric's Hardware
-A time when georgetown was a real community
-This is an awesome pic
-I lived on Sargent 14. Behind the plaza But I can’t make it out. Help 😁
-Not in there Glen.. this pic is facing the other way
-It was not there yet lol
-Sargent was there then, it was the last street, then there was open fields right to Hungry Hollow until the mid 60s.
-I think of you could go straight back between Loblaws and the plaza you go right to Sargent
-There was a path that way too, like there was the one in the pic to Raylawn
