    When I worked at Imperial paper mill, Gravesend from 1961 onward, the daywork beater floor foreman was named.... or at least he was always called.. Ernie. He must have retired around about 1970. Dont know if that was the same man or not, but I think he was related to a George Wise, maybe by marriage.
    Hope this may have helped.

    Sorry, that was Ernie Hearnden

What Difference Would Extra Income Make to Your Life ? by David Taylor (Member 10103609) on 31-Dec-2008

Why not make a new resolution to change your life in 2009. I am looking for people who have experience in the Financial Services, Utilities or Sales Industries. I can offer a good opportunity for those who are prepared to put in effort on a part-time basis with a Footsie 250 Plc company to earn a regular residual income for life.

Sad death of Ian Gally by peter harwood (Member 10070983) on 23-Oct-2007
If any one attended Southfields School in the 60's, or North West Kent College of Technology they may remember Ian. He lived in Wilberforce Way in those days and was always great company. He worked as manager of the Heron Garage in Perry Street and was a cab driver for Auto Reps in Clive Road.He moved to Southampton in the nineties where he sadly died of cancer aged 58.
