Twelve brothers & sisters came together in the same place for the first time since their mother’s funeral 20 years ago at a reunion for former pupils of Goonhavern School. Aged between 52yrs and 70yrs the Carter children all grew up in Goonhavern & Rejerrah and attended Goonhavern School between 1935-1958. Dennis Carter aged 70yrs was the first together with his twin brother Tony. Next were also twins Joan & June, and then births followed a consistent boy-girl pattern, Raymond, Betty, David, Pat, Barry, Maureen, Brian & Judith. All but four of them still live in Cornwall.
