I was wondering if anyone can help me
I lived in Braintree and lived opposite the Basingers until I got married and left home, I was at Junior School with Carl and Sally was my friend we spent lots of time together. Unfortunately when Sally moved to Australia we lost touch as I misplaced her address and have been looking to get in touch for a long time. I came across the article about her father Donald passing away
I am actually going to Australia on the 12th October 2017 and would really love if possible to see if I can see her, it's a long shot
My maiden name was Sharon Barnett I lived at No 40 Bradford St. I hope someone can help xx

Update: Email from Sally Williams: Hi
Someone sent me the post from Sharon an old childhood friend of mine.
I am the Sally Basinger she was trying to track down.
Do you have a contact email for her or feel free to pass mine on.
Kind Regards
Sally
Email forwarded! (Webmaster)
