I have just seen on ebay a large collection of photos, letters and dcouments egarding an Annie Shearer of Liverpool along with correspondence - all around 1st World War. Wouldn't it be lovely if it could go back to annie's family? Found in a biscuit tine in the loft. So if there is anyone out there with this connection get onto ebay. Kind regards Helen

Helen There are 54 Shearers from Liverpool that are on Genes - perhaps if you post this on other boards too then someone might pick it up? Jen x
