There were also Kinch's in Lloyd Road, East Ham; no 26 I recall. This would have been in the late 50s, all of the 60s but not sure about after this.  I don't recall the mother and father's names, but their sons were Peter, born 1949 and Bobbie, born 1951.  They came from New City Road, prior to this.

I grew up on Clova Road Forest Gate  E7 during the 1970's and remember the Kinch family that lived a couple of doors down from us.  We lived at number 11. The lady we use to call "Granny Kinch" i think her husband name was bert.  (I think my mum said they moved to austrailia back then???).

When I was at Three Mills School, Abbey Lane, Stratford from 1926 there was a Bone family living in one of the sideroads of Abbey Lane. I think they were in Lucas Road. A name of one of them comes to my mind - Henry Bone.

The Bone boys were rough and tough and ready for any physical challenge.  That is not to say that they were in any way lawbreakers. In fact, our society in Stratford then was very law-abiding. Any so-called crime committed was very petty by today's standards.
