Hi Dave,
My name is Maddy Pearson.
I have been a resident of Hertford all my life – and I am now doing a PhD at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine on human-environmental relations, which a specific focus on swimming on the river Beane – how this has changed over time and how we are seeing a resurgence of such immersions during the pandemic.
I came across the Goldings old boys website and found a fantastic photo of the boys leaping into the annexed swimming pool which was part of the River Beane at Goldings. I wondered if you might be willing to let me reproduce the image in my thesis – of course with due recognition paid to Goldings Old Boys and a link to the website? If you are happy for me to reproduce the image, I was wondering if you have a copy of it that doesn’t have the goldings.org stamp – or if that is the only digital version.
The photo is on this page:
http://www.goldings.org/page311.html
If you could let me know about this I would be very grateful. And if you want any more information please do ask.
Kind regards,
Maddy

Just looking at the front cover reading about Barry Hyland I remember Barry he was at Goldings about the same time as myself and in Somerset House as I was we bred some very good tradesmen and lots of fantastic sportsmen. Keep safe and best wishes to all my old mates and all at Goldings.

It has been brought to our attention that if the family of any Dr Barnardo Boy or Girl request the records of them, it now will cost them £100-00, which I find totally wrong to charge for such personal information of the child's time spent in Dr Barnardo homes.

I hope all you Goldings Boys are enjoying the Spring weather?
Temperatures are up, it's sunny, we have more freedom, (even though covid hasnt really disappeared, and Putin if Mr Wheatley was still around would be put on Jankers) it feels like Summer, and the clocks go forward this weekend giving us a little more Daytime hours.
All keep safe and we will meet up in October. "Don't forget your clocks"

Hi Dave
Thank you so much for your response. We contacted Kate Roach and as you intimated they would only communicate with a direct relative and there is a cost.
Ray’s son contacted them but the cost is £100 which for him is too much. As I have already funded his dna test to find his grandfather he doesn’t feel it’s right for me to pay any more.
I understand how this situation arises but it’s frustrating for an avid family historian like myself. The good news is that the dna test has borne fruit and ties in with one of the family stories about my uncles’ father.
Thanks again for the great work that you do
Best wishes
Denise
