4 AT LAD DIAR MULDON weanesaay, July 19, 1978 Nostalgia From Page 13 Alice and Sid, Baeda Jacobson, John Degrazio and Billy Hassels. Down by the Old Rooming House was the old Legion Hall, a place where dances were held along with show put on by a Mr. Bird, who at Christmas time, gave all the kids a bag of candy and a free show. On June 17, 1936, Dolly married Harry Blackie Curveon. The wedding took place in St.

Pau''s Anglican Church, Reverend Stewart officiating. The reception was held in her parents' home, Ada Lymbourne making the wedding cake which was decorated by Mrs. Sid Webber. Dolly stayed with her parents while Blackie worked on the Big Bend that summer and in the fall, they moved into No. 12 of Rolstons cabins, before Sam Thompson bought that place and renamed it Mary's Motel.

Some of the smaller cabins that Rolston had, are still ST.

They moved into Dart's house then rented a big house on a corner from Kattelus, then back to 9th street and finally to their present home on 11th Street. Blackie has been employed at different jobs over the years.

After the Big Bend was completed in 1939, he worked for Tommy King around Moberley. At another period, when his son was born, he was working in the Field Mine. Finally he found work with the Government. Freddy, their only son was born on September 17, 1942. Reverend Stewart and Reverend Eagles followed Reverend Lindfoot as ministers in St.

Paul's Anglican Church. It was Reverend Eagles who christened Freddy. Before and after marriage, Dolly sang in the church choir along with Dorothy Spowart, Mrs. Bradshaw, Mrs. Miller, Louise Falbo and Baeda Feuz.

Over the next 20 to 25 years Dolly had many casual jobs working in hotels, restaurants, motels and in private homes housecleaning. Then in 1965, Dolly found herself expecting and daughter Donna was born on June 30th. Of the original Lymbournes, William and Ada are gone now as well as all the boys and one girl. Selina lives in Australia, Mary is in Williams Lake, Irene is in Vancouver and Doris is in Quesnel. Her son Freddy lives in Calgary is married with two children and expecting their third.

He works for Greyhound Bus Lines. Each of Golden's long time residents has memories that are special to them. I hope you have enjoyed the story of Dolly Curveon as we have brought you those memories, special just to her.
