Dinsmore Web Pages
|
One day, I got the bright idea of searching
the web to see if the community I grew up in had a presence on the web.
I used every search engine that I could find and could not find a page
for Dinsmore.
My name is Ralph Dukes. I was called by my
initials when I was a child, growing up in Dinsmore. My initials
are "R.L. My dad lived and operated a welding shop which was located
at 6949 Pitts Road. It was called "Dukes' Welding Shop."
I attended grammar school at Dinsmore Elementary.
The first few years at Dinsmore Elementary was in the old school building,
which is now a play ground next to the two story convenience store on the
corner of Old Kings Road and Civic Club Drive.
I also attended Paxon Jr Hi the first year after
it was built and then Paxon Sr Hr. I wonder if Dinsmore kids still
attend these schools?
I was a member of Dinsmore Baptist Church during
my childhood years. Back then, I think only the Methodist Church
and the Baptist Churches were there. The Dinsmore Baptist Church
was a wooden building in back of the present Brick Sanctuary.
This page is being created, in the hopes that past,
present and future citizens of Dinsmore will find it on the web, send me
an E-Mail and I can post their messages on this page and if they have a
web page, I can link it to this page.
I am linking the several pages that I found during
my search of people in Dinssmore. If you know of any other personal
home pages, please let me know.
Thank you,
R.L. Dukes
Former Resident of Dinsmore
