SPBrunner: Sammon Avenue


Sammon Avenue, Toronto
My parents bought our house at 100 Sammon in the early 1940's and sold it around 1955. Below I have some pictures of children we played with in the neighbourhood. I am sure that I got some of the names wrong.
This is a picture of John Bingham and me. John and I were friends until his family moved away.
Below is some of the children of the neighbourhood. From left to right is Beth, Barbara Boohan, Fran, John Bingham, me, Elaine Bingham and Donna Boohan. I do not know the last names of all the children. Of these children, it was Barbara, John and me that hung around together.

	This is another picture of John Bingham and me.
This is a clearer picture of the children of the last photo. The photos is more than just kids from this street. From left to right in the back is Betty Parkes, Deanna Young, (unknown), Beth, Murry Payne. The next row is Shirley Parkes, Fran, Elaine Bingham, John Bingham and me in the very front.

This picture is from Sammon Avenue. From left to right is Beth, Fran, Happy Hardy with me in front.
This is another picture from Sammon Avenue of some of the kids on the street and some visiting us. From left to right in the back row is Happy Hardy, Lois Smith, Elaine Bingham, Donna Boohan, Fran, and Beth. In the front row is Hollie Avery, Murry Calder, Barbara Boohan and me.

	This is a picture of me in the wonderful jeep our father built for me and my sisters. We were the envy of the neighbourhood. The young boys were especially jealous of this jeep and could not understand why girls should get such a toy.
This is from a picnic in High Park. From the left is Donnie Avery, Fran, Lois Smith, Hollie Avery, Beth, Betty Parkes, Shirley Parkes and me.
