Payroll Office West Bromwich women’s Arm

My mother Bessie (Betty) Evitts nee Wright 1919, was a clerk in the payroll office. I can’t seem to find anything about this on line. Any ideas? I believe she joined in 1942.

 

There is an association which might be able to help:

Home of the RAPC Regimental Association

 

Thanks

 

Do you have any paperwork you would like to share on the forum

During WW2

 

No but I will for sure once I get some.

 

At Kew there is a history which may well have geographical locations of offices: see

DEFE 70/401.
