            <title>Descendents of Ingram Show founder turn out for centenary</title>
            <description><![CDATA[<p>A popular Northumberland show enjoyed a special link to the past when it celebrated 100 years of fun and games.</p>

<p>Descendants of the founder of the Ingram Show came from across the country and gathered in the tiny village to hand out  prizes  and help the community commemorate the centenary.</p>

<p><span class="mt-enclosure mt-enclosure-image" style="display: inline;"><img alt="Descendents of the Ingram Show founder Reverend Canon Roland Allgood" src="http://alnwick.journallive.co.uk/news/ingramfounderdescendents.jpg" width="505" height="255" class="mt-image-center" style="text-align: center; display: block; margin: 0 auto 20px;" /></span></p>

<p>Organisers tracked down members of Reverend Canon Roland Allgood's family from across Britain. The oldest is 98 and even his great great grandchildren aged just 19 months were on hand to see how the show has grown from its modest roots to welcoming almost 2,000 visitors.</p>]]></description>

            <title>Ingram Valley nostalgia photos</title>
            <description><![CDATA[<p>Ingram is looking ahead to a major social event in its calendar this weekend when the traditional Ingram Show takes place in the village on Saturday.</p>

<p>We take the opportunity to look at three interesting pictures of the village and the surrounding valley from the Journal's photographic archive.</p>

<p><span class="mt-enclosure mt-enclosure-image" style="display: inline;"><img alt="Ingram School" src="http://wooler.journallive.co.uk/nostalgia/ingram2.jpg" width="500" height="300" class="mt-image-center" style="text-align: center; display: block; margin: 0 auto 20px;" /></span></p>

<p>Ingram School was enjoying a celebration almost 60 years ago, too, in our first picture. The school is holding its Christmas party in the early 1950s, with headteacher Mrs Proudlock presiding.</p>]]></description>

            <title>A look back on Cheviot family life</title>
            <description><![CDATA[<p><span class="mt-enclosure mt-enclosure-image" style="display: inline;"><img alt="Dorothy Sharpe" src="http://wooler.journallive.co.uk/news/dorothysharpedress.jpg" width="200" height="229" class="mt-image-right" style="float: right; margin: 0 0 20px 20px;" /></span>For 12 years Elizabeth Ellen Dunn walked the wild Cheviot Hill country of Northumberland as a post girl.</p>

<p>She continued until her marriage in 1927, at the age of 29, to Henry Trotter, who was three years younger and had also attended school in the Cheviot village of Kirknewton.</p>

<p>Now the village hall is the home of an exhibition that centres on Elizabeth and her family. It's called Our Very Own Laura, after the post girl character Laura Timmins in Flora Thompson's Lark Rise to Candleford books, which became a successful TV series.</p>

<p>The exhibition is based on a remarkable family collection which came to light through a chance encounter.</p>]]></description>

            <title>Archivist looking for Glendale Show memories</title>
            <description><![CDATA[<p>A Northumberland woman wants your childhood memories to help uncover the history of a county show.</p>

<p>Berwick archivist Linda Bankier and colleagues are putting together an exhibition charting the history of the Glendale Show as part of an ongoing food heritage project.</p>

<p>They already have many items of interest from the Records Office and the show's own archives, but hope people will come forward and bring the information to life with personal experiences.</p>]]></description>
