looking for the history of Cotton Tree, WCB

 

You from that place?

Down the road is Rosignol. In 1948, Rosignol School only had up to Standard II. We had to continue on at Cotton Tree School for rest of the schooling. It was a good time during those years, we would run home from school for lunch and ran back. 

There were about ten of us, I was the only Indian. The group would wait by Johnny Shiek's Drug Store for each other before running back.

I seriously consider that run is responsible for the enjoyment of good health at this reasonable age. And I thank God that those chaps from Rosignol coaxed me into running home with them for lunch. 

A number of us lived at Fatman Logies.

Lots of my family from there. I am not 100% sure, but I think my great great grandfather bought Cotton Tree from the COlonists.

Nah, I not from there...but went there quite a few times

ALmost all my family from WCB, from ROsignal to Mahaica
