Uxbridge is where my grandad was from , joined the navy as a young boy during the war met my nana and settled in kirkintilloch just outside Glasgow after my nana couldn't settle in England . Ive lived in Glasgow all my life and it's strange to think how different things would be if my nana hadn't been homesick .

My Mother was from Hayes Middlesex. Her Father, my Grandfather worked at Fairey Aviation during WWII. Her parents were Irish(from Dublin, Ireland) and immigrated to England in 1931.

As my family's genealogist, this is a wonderful film/video. I have heard my mother talking about all of the areas mentioned, especially Hayden Hall and Kodak. My great grand parents worked at Hayden Hall, both Abbotts.
