How awful. But then the raids were awful . I lived in SE London and still remember the fear when the air raid warnings went.

Even tho I was evacuated to knet in 1939 we eventually got bombings too because of the Kent Airfields . I was sent home to London and then re evacuated to Birmingham but there was some few months in between that happening

She was killed in a bombing raid and all that remained to identify her was an arm.

looks like she died at work

I've reached the point where I don't expect to find anything new on my family history so I've let my membership of Ancestry lapse. I'll have to find a new hobby now!
