I've managed to read your message. I'm finding it hard to work out how this site works, and I don't really want to get too involved. I'm 80 years old, live in Australia, and my internet access is limited. I haven't found anything in my father's memories referring to Sharpe, he was over 80 when he jotted them down. But I can send them to you if you email me directly at (*)
I also have one or two photos, one of my dad in army uniform, and one of his parents.
I remember the area around Sellincourt and Charlmont Roads very clearly, we lived near Amen Corner from 1938, and I used to walk to Grandma Walpole's from there quite frequently. But I didn't know many people there, as I went to school in the opposite direction.

Family History Beginners Board / Re: Maurice A Sharpe 1924 looking for relatives

I can satisfy your curiosity about GHT Walpole. He lodged with the Sharpes from 1935 when he left the Army, until he married my mother in June 1937. He may have been a family friend, as his parents and at least 4 siblings lived just round the corner at 18 Charlmont Road. This was only a ground floor flat, so room was very restricted, he would have preferred a room to himself.
