Hi Gwen

My name is Vic Lander and my family lived in Rifle Butt Road from the early 1800s to the 1940s. Bert and Kit Stevens were my godparents. Be good to compare memories, contact me.

Hi Gwen, I have just got on to this website and saw the item about Rifle Butt Rd, my parents lived there and my sister was born there in 1927, just before the war we moved up to 107 Whitehawk Ave. (Through my family research I have discovered that my Great Grand Parents lived at 18 Rifle Butt Rd in1871) My Mum and Dad knew the Stevens family quite well and I used to go to school with their daughter Marion, also my father used to work at the gas works until he had to go in the navy at the beginning of hostilities in 1939, from what my sister tells me she seems to think that they lived on the opposite side of the road to the bakery, I have a couple of old photo's of Rifle Butt Rd but I am afraid they are what I copied to my computer. Contact by e-mail and I'll e-mail them to you, kind regards Derek Piper

Hi Derek

Neither of us seem to have any luck contacting Gwen re Rifle Butt Road. You can see my family connection as above.

I grew up wih Marion Stevens and her sister Janet.

When I was three years old we lost our house in Rifle Butt in the bombing.

I am Vice Chair of East Brighton Bygones and it would be good to make more contact with you and compare memories. Contact me on our E-mail address eastbrightonbygones@gmail.com

Regards Vic Lander
