Memories and Personal Reminiscences

This area of the web-site records memories and personal reminiscences of the villages provided by members of the Society and others.

The Society is willing to receive authentic memories relating to the Kibworths and Smeeton Westerby from anyone able and willing to contribute them. Memories offered can be short or detailed. They may be supplementary to articles already published, or on a quite different topic. Subject to editorial checks, each memory submitted will be added as an Extra to the original memory.

Contributors should send their memory, including full contact details, thank you.

The “memories” are all in pdf format and may be downloaded, free of charge, for personal use only. Please acknowledge the Society as the source of the document.
