I am trying to get in touch with a Gosling family who may be living in Beckenham. Henry Gosling lived in Upper Norwood and died on 14th December 1979. The death was registered by his son Leslie who lived at 130 Churchfields Road, Beckenham. He sadly also died in 1994. I have not been able to trace a living relative so far. The reason is the Henry's sister, Edith Mary Ann Gosling was my grandmother so we are related. Henry also took over the Scott family bot & shoe repair business in the 1930's (I think). Thanks.
Hope this is of some use.
First school Bromley road (is it still there)and then Barnhill(pickhurst rise demolished about mid sixties)
Although parents divorced my early years in Beckenham were fantastic. Loved it!
Thanks
John
