    temptage I thought it would only take a few weeks......

    I found this ladies name on a list I made years ago, and I didnt know why she was on it.

    Little bit of research, bit of Ancestry, borrowed a friends subscription to Newspapers.com and bingo.

    A previously unknown civilian casualty of a German air raid, and even better, no records locally even have air raid listed as happening. A little bit of local history changed.

    One name submitted. Lord Sir Terence Denham has run his eye over it, as well as Paul Charlesworth and both have given it the thumbs-up.

    Just gotta wait now.
