Hi Colin.Do try the Facebook group called 'We Love Acton' I'm sure someone on there maybe able to help you. Seems a very friendly group. Here is the link:http://www.facebook.com/home.php#!/groups/445411745485006/

Colin you could try posting on the Facebook group We Love Acton.  There are numerous postings about people's memories of living in Acton and North Acton streets/schools etc are mentioned.Hope this helps - good luck with your Search!regardsAnnabella

Thank you to the last 2 posters about the "We Love Acton" group on Facebook.I am not comfortable posting information about my family on Facebook, so how else can I get my message across?

Hi Colin, you don't need to go into detail - perhaps you can just ask if anyone remembers the family name and the house number you lived at/or mention the school you went to.  If anyone responds you can send personal info via Messaging.  Take a look at the site and see how much info you feel comfortable with sharing.  Good luck again.

Thank you, I'll have a 'look-see' and see what the folks there are like.Mind you, it'd be a 'bloomin' sight easier if you knew 'em!!!Colin

Colin there is a SEARCH button on the website and you can type in the words 'Noel Road' and see if any of the residents (current or previous) sound familiar?

Colin, try logging on to We Love Acton site.  Can also be through Facebook.  This is a relatively new site but it is amazing how many people have found contacts from it.  The memories keep flooding in!
