HI THERE SOME-ONE MENTIONED SOME-ONE WORKING THERE ALL IS LIFE AND RETIRED AND PASSED AWAY AT THE AGE OF 56 -
WELL MY UNCLE GEORGE JELF IS STILL LIVING AND HE HIS NINETY YEARS OF AGE AND STILL GOING STRONG AND LIVING OVER IN WEOLY CASTLE ;
BIRMINGHAM AND HE WAS A BIG TRADE UNIONIST FOR THE METAL TRADE I THINK IT WAS YOU CAN LEARN ALL ABOUT HIM ON GOOGLE BY TYPING IN GEORGE JELF EVEN THOU HE MAY HAVE CAUSED A RUMPUS WITH SOME SILLY SECURITY OVERNOTHINK HE DONE ALOT OF GOOOD FOR THE BIRMINGHAM PEOPLE
INCLUDING CONVERLESONS HOME IN WALE WHICH YOU WILL LEARN ABOUT IT ON GOOGLE LIKE I DID ;
I LEARNT OF HIS NAME THROUGH MY MOTHER MANY years ago when he it the head lines of creating a strike and walk out because it was some think to do with the dammed car parking when she seen his name on the head lines it was then she spoke of him and said look this man is my cousin
and told me of his back ground a being a councuillor with in the small heath ward for donkeys years since he was young and came back from canada
and the rest of the family fell out with him over his beleives but she never did fall out with george as they was great mates and friends as being 1 st cousins
it also on google it states he played a big part of the people of birmingham by getting them houses on chelmsley wood when it first was built it apparently was a high percentage of birmingham people of getting there house thereso he must have done some good also involved with the old birmingham city councill
in there early years of being formed along with and great friends of freda cox and co ;
but also my mother told us that many years years ago i do not which war it was but the jelfs father or there grand father used to go to great king street
with a cart and sell sandwiches and tea to the night workers of lucas,s out side there gates and thats how he made the money
for a little shop down sumer lane end and he would put a great big joint of cooking meat with windows steaming up and stand in the window with a cheffs
tall top hat and done well in making his money for the family when i was a young lad i used to walk down there to great kings street and think of the storiesmy mother told me about her family and knowing of all the coffee shops they had around the birmingham --aston area as well
and i would always look in to see if i seen my grand father in any of them but there again i do not think for one minute they would have spoke to me because they shunned my mother like george for going away with the commoner and gold digger like my old man;
i have heard stories before ; but two years ago i went to see george at his house in weoly castle and he said the same thing ; yes alan i remember your mom and dad he cause problems because he had a drink problem and he lived with us for awhille at new cannal street
because they ansells draymen deliver casked s of beers every week for there big party s which was often ;
