EMMA JEAL 1825 - ????

Could this possibly be the Emma ch 12.6.1825 in St Mary Cray to Alpheus and Sarah?

In 1851 she was a cook. Her age is slightly wrong on the census but her place of birth is correct.

In 1861 she was still working as a cook but it says on the census that she is married. She is still using the name Jeal. Was this because she was ashamed of being a single mum?

Her child:

Alpheus 1859

In 1871 he was boarding with his uncle Philip and aunt Elizabeth and Emma is nowhere to be found.

I have found an Emma in the 1871 census who is the right age and place of birth. She is the wife of William Fleming.

I tried putting in William Fleming with the spouse’s name as Emma and it only comes up with the one marriage – the one in 1875. Mmm!

Brittain was called up to serve his country for the duration of the war. He seemed to moved from Regiment to Regimnet, changing serial numbers. Below is the information I managed to decipher. Some other stuff was impossible to read and I believe included a few other Regiments.

On 17/02/1916 Brittain was attested. He had been living at 12 Jubilee Road, Foots Cray with his mother and had been employed by Kent County Council as a roadman. Brittain was 36 years and 287 days old. He was to be Private 13102 Imms of the RW Surrey regiment.

Walter Henry George 1917

Daisy and Wally (as he was known) lived all their married lives in Battle, most of it in the same house. Daisy worked in the local Newberry’s jam factory at the bottom of her road. Wally worked there before their marriage but I am not sure if he did afterwards. What I remember of Wally was that he always looked like a gamekeeper to me and I thought this was his job. When I mentioned it to my aunt she sais she remembered Wally as a softly spoken man sitting beside the fire mending nets. So she thought maybe he went poaching rabbits.

Walter died in Battle in 1963, aged 81 years.

For as long as I knew them, Daisy and Wally had a lodger named Percy. I do not know his surname or his occupation but he was always around and he was a very quiet and unasuming man.

Sometime after Wally's death, Daisy moved into a retirement flat in Coronation Gardens, Battle. It was at this flat that myself and younger sister stayed for a few days. Daisy got on better with my younger sister and I got on better with Daisy's younger sister Mabel.

Daisy died in Battle in 1972, aged 87.

MAY CONSTANCE BOSWELL MUGRIDGE SEPT 1889 -1927

Born in Hastings Sussex.

Christened in Cranbrook in Kent Sussex on 31/7/1892. Cranbrook is the smallest town in Kent.

In 1891 May was living at 13 Earl Street, Hastings with her mother and siblings Daisy and Laura. Her father was not at home that night. Class: RG12; Piece: 763; Folio 62; Page 44; GSU roll: 6095873.

In 1901 May was living at 3 Tamarisk steps, Hastings old town with her parents and siblings May, Mabel, Alfred and Caleb. Class: RG13; Piece: 864; Folio: 30; Page: 15.

In 1911 May was an inmate at the Hastings Union Workhouse and was described as formerly a general domestic servant. In the same household was a 1 year old Alfred John Muggridge; was he possibly May's son? If so, he died that same year. Class: RG14; Piece: 4730.

May possibly died in Hastings in 1927. There is a registration in Q1 1927 for a May C Mugridge of the right age.

I would dearly love to find a photograph of May as her and her younger brother Tom are the only Mugridges in this family group I have never seen.


ISABEL FLORA MABEL MUGRIDGE 14/07/1891-1973

Born in Hastings, Sussex.

Known to the family as Mabel which is why I had so much trouble finding her birth, marriage and death details.

In 1901 Mabel was living at 3 Tamarisk steps, Hastings old town with her parents and siblings May, Alfred and Caleb. Class: RG13; Piece: 864; Folio: 30; Page: 15.

In 1911 Mabel was working as a between maid at what looks like Carlick House, 19-15 Cambridge Gardens, Hastings. The head of the house was widow Emily Gal (boarding house keeper). This was a big house, with a total of 40 people there on the day of the census. A between maid was a girl in a large household who was given odd jobs to do and her duties were split bewteen the area of responsibilities of the housekeeper, butler and cook. This could be a potentially difficult job to do if the housekeeper, butler and cook did not get on.

Married George Henry Wenham (b abt. 1891 in Hastings) in Q1 1921 in Hastings. George had been living in Canada for 8 years prior to the marriage, working as a farm labourer in Saskatewan.

Mabel and George emigrated to Canada in the 1920s. I thought that once I found the passenger lists it would be easy. How wrong I was. The dates don't tie up with the marriage year!

Twenty nine year old George travelled back to Canada on baord the SS Melita, arriving in Saint John, New Brunswick on 20/04/1920 (according to the Ancestry record). Reading the Canada, Ocean Arrivals (form 30A), it was signed by George on 24/03/1921, which would tie up with the marriage year. George stated he was married, his wife was Mabel and she lived at 51 ? Road, Ore, Hastings. I can't work out the name of the road. The reason George gave for coming to Canada was "returning home". He stated he had lived in Imperial, Saskatewan, arrived in Quebec in 1912 and left again via Montreal in 1920 (I have found him coming into Liverpool on 08/12/1920 and going to stay at Fishponds Farm, Hastings. He was a farmer). The reason for his leaving was to go visit friends in England. Asked if he intended to reside permanently in Canada, George had answered yes. He was going to see a friend, Mr F Davis in Imperial, travelling on the CPR railway routing.

Mabel arrived in Quebec aboard the SS Empress of France on 16/06/1921. She travelled 3rd Class and left England on 08/06/1921. According to her Form 30A, Mabel was travelling onto Regina, Imperial, Sasketwean aboard the CPR and she was destined to her husband George Wenham and Mr Fed Davis in Imperial. Mabel listed as her nearest relative in England one Mrs Playford of 51 Winchelsea Road, Ore. What relation she was to Mabel, I have no idea, she is a new one one me!

When the pair returned to England (don't know when yet), they moved to Westfield in Sussex, not far from Mabel's sister Daisy. I remember when we used to go down to Hastings on holiday as children we would go one week to see Mabel and the other week to see Daisy. This was always an adventure as we took the bus as neither of my parents drove.

George possibly died in the Hastings reg district in 1967, aged 74.

Mabel died in the Hastings reg district, (quite possibly in Westfield) in 1975, aged 84.

When anybody in the family mentions Mabel, I immediately conjure up a picture of a kindly woman with a deep voice and a large mole on her face, sitting there crocheting afghans. I still have 2 she she made way back in th 1960s. I didn't know George before they went to Canada, only when they came back to England and until recently I had always assumed he was a Canadian. I have a photograph of him in his Army uniform and he looks like Lee Marvin in the Dirty Dozen. He had a very rich, deep voice and both he and Mabel always made me laugh. Mabel was a lot less frightening to me as a young girl than her sister Daisy had been.


ALFRED HENRY THOMAS MUGRIDGE 1894-1949

Born in Hastings.

In 1901 Thomas was living at 3 Tamarisk steps, Hastings old town with his parents and siblings May, Mabel and Caleb. Class: RG13; Piece: 864; Folio: 30; Page: 15.

In 1911 Thomas (as he was named on the census) was living at 26 Russell Street, Hastings with his parents and brother Caleb. Also there at the time of the census was his sister Rosie and her 3 daughters Ivy, Grace and Daisy. Thomas was working as an errand boy for fishermen. Class: RG14; Piece: 4739; Schedule Number: 185.

Married Dorothy Victoria H Housden (b 1886 in Hoylake, Cheshire) in Q4 1919 in Hastings.

Their child:

Joan F 1924

Tom (as he was known) was a St John’s Ambulance man in Hastings.

Dorothy died in Q2 1944.

Tom very likely died in Hastings in Q1 1949, aged 54.


CALEB JOHN FISHER MUGRIDGE 05/08/1898 – 06/05/1960

Born in Hastings.

In 1901 Caleb was living at 3 Tamarisk steps, Hastings old town with his parents and siblings May, Mabel and Alfred. Class: RG13; Piece: 864; Folio: 30; Page: 15.

In 1911 Caleb was living at 26 Russell Street, Hastings with his parents and brother Tom. His sister Rosie was also there that day with her 3 daughters Ivy, Grace and Daisy.

Caleb served in the Royal East Sussex Regiment during WW1 and was hit in the left shoulder with a dum dum bullet. He was invalided out and unfit to serve in WW2. I have since found his war medals record card and it appears he also served in the Royal Medical Corps. Could he possibly have gone there after he recovered from his injuries as he was still able to drive etc?

Caleb worked as a lorry driver and that was possibly what he was doing in Littlehampton, along the coast when he met his future wife.

Married Emily Florence Leggett (B 17/08/1903 in Littlehampton) in Littlehampton Sussex on 17/8/1925, Emily's 21st birthday.

Their children:

Frances May 20/2/1925
Bertie John Leonard 4/6/1926
Elizabeth Ann 6/2/1930
Anthony Robert 19/4/1933
Alison Mary 4/8/1950

Caleb drove a taxi and worked as a motor mechanic all his life. He owned his own taxi in Hastings. He was listed as taxi proprietor on his daughter Betty's marriage certificate. This could have meant he had more than one taxi but I think he possibly only owned the one. At one point in his life, Caleb worked as a rag and bone man, operating out of a building in George Street in the Old Town district of Hastings. The building was destroyed during the war and is now a garden.

Caleb and Emily and the children lived in many rented places in Hastings, moving frequently to quite probably avoid the rent man. Some of the places I know were St Thomas's Road, 33 and 136 Braybrooke Road.

During the war Caleb worked in a munitions factory in Hendon, London. He and the family lived at 3 Dehar Crescent, Hendon. I don't know if they moved to London during the war so they could work in the factories but I am assuming so. It seemed strange that they lived in Hastings before and after but not during, when I thought they would have been safer there than London.

Caleb and Emily bought a house in Hastings (quite possibly on their return from London) at 14 Brook Street. They lived there for many years. Their youngest daughter, Alison was born there and there middle daughter, Betty, was married from there. They had a cat named Tinker who lost his front teeth outside the house when somebody on a bicycle drove into him.

This house in Brook Street was only a few hundred yards from previous homes of Caleb's parents (Earl Street and Cornwallis Street). Caleb had not been born when they lived there.

Caleb and Emily sold the house in Brook Street in and moved to Earl Street.

Caleb,Emily and their daughter Alison lived in a flat at 6 Havelock Road. Caleb's grandfather had helped build this street years before.

Caleb died of stomach cancer in St Helens Hospital Hastings on 6/5/1960, aged 61. He had still been living in Havelock Road at the time.

After Caleb's death, Emily and Alison lived at 55 Ashburnham Road, 62 Crowborough Road, 109 Queen's Road and 190 Bohemia Road in St Leonards on Sea. This last home was lived in for many years until the houses were demolished (A Lidl supermarket now resides in place of my grandmother's home) when Emily went to live in a one bedroom flat at 89 Linley Drive, Hastings.

Emily lived in Linley Drive until her death on 11/07/1976. She died as a result of a stroke. Her son Bertie was the informant.

CALEB HENRY FISHER 05/01/1881-07/07/1

Born in Orpington.

Christened there on 27/2/1881.

In 1881 baby Caleb was living at 3 Brickbat Row, Orpington. Class: RG14; Piece: 3701; Schedule Number: 248.

In 1891 Caleb was living at Station Cottage, Halstead, Kent with his parents and siblings Mary, George and Elizabeth. Class: RG12; Piece: 672; Folio: 125; Page: 5; GSU Roll: 6095782.

Now I have it on good authority that Caleb spent 12 years in the Royal Dragoon Cavalry, serving in South Africa (during the Boar War) and India. He saw his progress in the Army was limited by the fact his father was working class (a railway worker). Caleb then decided to make his way to Canada and become a farmer. According to a clipping from the local paper, he arrived in Canada in 1907.

Married Grace May Phillips (b 28/05/1887 in Tettenhall Wood, Wolverhamton, Staffordshire) on 10/01/1912 in Fort Qu'Apelle, Saskatchewan. The temperature that day was -60 degrees F!

In 1916 Caleb and Grace were living at 23 Saltcoats, Saskatchewan.

Their children:

Philip Caleb 1913
Kenneth Verdun 04/04/19

Caleb joined the Canadian Army during WW1 and he attained the rank of Captain.

After the war Caleb went back to his farm and in 1920 he was elected Reeve of his municipality in 1920. He served 22 years as Reeve and Councilor. Caleb was a name that was unusual, almost unheard of in Canada, so the locals called him Charlie. Caleb was a very well respected gentleman and was identified with almost every worthy cause in the province. He was, amongst other things, President of the Saskatchewan Association of Rural Municipalities, a member of the Saskatchewan Cancer Commission, a member of the Saskatchewan Municipal Advisory Commission and Chairman of the hospital visiting committe under the Mental Hygiene Act. Fisher Peninsula, in the Pinehouse Lake District, Saskatchewan, was named in Caleb's honour for recognition of his long and distinguished services on behalf of the Rural Municipality of Lipton and the Province. and he was presented to the Law Society by Dean F.C. Cronkite of law.

Caleb tried to enlist for WW11 but he was considered too old. Still wanting to 'do his stuff' for his country, Caleb trained a local militia group. He even learned German as there were lots of German farmers near Lipton, Saskatchewan and Caleb wanted to know what they were talking about incase it helped the war effort.

On 18/07/1952 Caleb and Grace arrived in Liverpool aboard the Empress of Canada, of the Canadian Shipping LIne. He was 71 and Grace, 65 and they had boarded the ship in Montreal, Canada. Their destination in England was Crofton, Orpington, Kent.

Caleb and Grace again returned to the UK in 1957. They arrived this time in Greenock, Scotland aboard the Carinthia of the Cunard Steamship Company and arrived from MOntreal on 27/06/1957. They were returning to the same address in Orpington.

Caleb died on 07/07/1969 in Fort Qu'Apelle, Saskatchewan, aged 88.

Grace died in Fort Qu'Appelle Hospital on 07/07/1982, aged 95. She was buried in Lipton cemetery, Saskatchewan.

Information on Caleb and his family is from my cousin, Brian Fisher. Many thanks Brian.

FREDERICK GEORGE STAPLES 10/10/1897-????

Born in Lambeth, Surrey.Now either Frederick lied in 1920 when he was attested or his birth was registered 2 years late!

Christened on 14/11/1897 in St John the Evangalist's, Lambeth. the family had been living at 9 Vine Street.

In 1901 Frederick was living at 8 Pinto Place, Camberwell, London with his parents and brother William. His widowed paternal grandmother Eliza Ewins was also living there as was servant Maud Ethel Stock. Class: RG13; Piece: 493; Folio: 64; Page: 49.

In 1911 Frederick was living at 12 Hodson Street, Walworth, London with his mother and siblings Frederick, William, Evelena and Timothy. His father was living elsewhere with his mother. Class: RG14; Piece: 1853.

On Frederick was attested into the Teritorial Force on 13/02/1913. He became Private 1453 Staples in the County of London Battalion. His trade and emplyers are too faint to read, as is his address.

Frederick was examined at 73 New Street, Kennington, London on 27/02/1913. He was 17 years and 4 months old, stood 5' 3" tall and had an expanded chest measurement of33 1/2".

According to his records, Frederick served from 03/08/1913 to 17/08/1913. This had been referred to as "war thing". He was then embodied in the 24th from 05/08/1914

Frederick had to make a will and he left the whole of his property to his mother, Norah Eliza Staples who lived at 8 Huron Street, Lorrimore.

At some point, Frederick's serial nuber changed to 720181.

According to Frederick's miltary history sheet he served at home from 13/02/1913 to 10/03/1915 (2 years and 30 days), in the Expedition Force France from 15/03/1915 to 12/02/1919 (3 years and 363 days) and then back home from 13/02/1919 until 14/03/1919. He served a toatl of 6 years and 30days. He was disembodied from 13/03/1919 to 31/03/1920 (1 year and 16 days). His campaings were home from 05/08/1914 to ?/03/1915 and in France

Married Charlotte Lucy Maud Taylor on 17/08/1918 in St George's, Camberwell. Frederick was a 21 year old soldier and Charlotte was a 21 year old munstcon(?) worker. The couple were living at 32 Neate Street. The witnesses were Henry Taylor (charlotte's father) and Evelena Ruby Staples (Frederick's sister).

Frederick also said in his Army forms that he married on 27/07/1918 and Nellie Taylor was the witness. I checked this against the original marriage document on Ancestry and once again Frederick told porkies! Was his memory really that bad? He did get the name of the vicar correct though.

Frederick was demobilised on 04/03/ 1916 and he and Charlotte were living at 6 Holland Road, Brixton, London. His character had been excellenat.

Frederick recieved his Bronze Star on 10/07/1920 and his Victory and British War medals on 26/04/1923.

On 24/06/1920 Frederick was again attested into the Territorial Force, this time for 1 year. His serial number this time was 6779568 and he claimed to have been born on 10/10/1895. Frederick was an electrician's assistant, married and living at 28 Villa Street, Walworth. He had been demobbed from the 24th County of London Regiment, Queens and his serial number had been 720181.

During this medical, Frederick was said to be 24 years and 240 days old, 5' 5" tall, weighed 123 pounds, had a fully expanded chest measuremnet of 36", brown hair, blue eyes and a fair complexion. He was said to be 26 years and 8 months old. He was examined at 73 New Street, Kennington, London and was considered fit to serve his country.

Frederick was discharged on 23/06/1921 and his character was said to be good.

I have yet to find a death for Frederick, although there is a suitable candidate died in Q3 1949 in the Westminster reg district, London.


WILLIAM JAMES STAPLES 27/09/1898-1942 ?

Born in Waterloo, Lambeth,Surrey.

Christened on 16/10/1897 in St John the Evangalist's, Lambeth. the family had been living at 9 Vine Street.

In 1901 William was living at 8 Pinto Place, Camberwell, London with his parents and brother Frederick. His widowed paternal grandmother Eliza Ewins was also living there as was servant Maud Ethel Stock. Class: RG13; Piece: 493; Folio: 64; Page: 49.

In 1911 William was living at 12 Hodson Street, Walworth, London with his mother and siblings Frederick, Evelena and Timothy. His father was living elsewhere with his mother. Class: RG14; Piece: 1853.

William was attested for short service on 28/08/1916. He was sent to the Army Reserves on 29/08/1916. He was mobilized on 09/12/1916 and was in the Rifle Brigade of the 21st Hertfordshire Regiment. His serial number was originally 29584 and then sometime became 268??? Very messy piece of paper and difficult to read in places.. He was an electrician living at 6 Holland Road, Brixton. This was the home of his mother. William was 18 years and 3 months, stood 5' 5 1/4" tall and had an expanded chest measurement of 35 1/2".

According to his statement of services, William was mobilized and posted, as a Private, on 09/12/1916. He was transferred to the Royal Tank Corp on 22/12/1916 and his serial number changed to 305051. On 14/07/1917 William was transferred to the 5th (Res) Battalion of the Bedfordshire Regiment. He was again transferred on 06/11/1917. I believe this was to the Royal Engineers and his serial number changed again, this time to 307213. He was posted the very next day, but I cannot make out where to. He was posted to the Tank Depot sometime in January 1918. He was then a Gunner. On 08/07/1918 he was a Private in the 15th Battalion. On 19/01/1919 William was compulserily transferred to the Tank Corps. William was then posted back to the 15th Battalion on 31/1/1918. On 8/02/1919 William embarked on a boat in Southampton. He disembarked the next day in Le Harve. He was on his way to Russia with No 1 Tank Stores and arrived there on 13/02/1919. The form then goes on to say that William rejoined from Russia on 26/05/1919. From what did he rejoin?

His military time was broken down in such a way: Home from 28/08/1916 to 07/08/1918 (1 year and 348 days), British Expiditionary Force from 08/07/1918 (I am sure that should be 08/08/1918) to 12/02/1919 (220 days) and then Russia from 13/02/1919. There is no to date!

On 17/10/1919 Private William James Staples was transferred to Class"Z" Army Reserves and disembodied.

Married Edith May Mansfield on 10/12/1921 in Emmanuel Church, Camberwell. William was a 23 year old electrician living at 65 Councillor Street and Edith was 21 and living at 9 Palladon Place. The witnesses were Norah Eliza Staples (William's mother) and James Frederick Mansfield (Edith's father).

William and Edith had a daughter who may still be alive.

Also there that day (and quite likely living there) were cousins Elizabeth and James Reeves. There was also a servant named James Harris and a boarder named George Morey (coachman). Class: RG14; Piece: 2751.

Minnie was still living at the same address on 14/11/1918. I know this because she wrote a letter asking the Army if they could please tell her whether Charles Walkling was alive and well. Charles was serving in the Royal Field Artillery at the time. She signed the letter Minnie Jeal.

Married Charles Walkling (b 1894) in the Lewisham reg district in Q3 1919. They married after Charles was demobilised from the Army. He had been a casual labourer before he was called up for war service.

Minnie and Charlie had 2 sons and 2 daughter, some of whom may still be alive.

Class: RG14; Piece: 2751.

Married Joseph J Orves in Q1 1919 in the Lewisham reg district. On the FreeBMD web page, the names Ethel M Jeal and Marion E Jeal appear, so it seems Ethel went by both names quite regularly.

ELIZABETH ANN MUGRIDGE 6/2/1930-25/4/2008

My mum kept all sorts of bits of paper from her past for which I am extremely grateful. It's a shame I never knew about them until after her death as I would liked to have quizzed her on some of them.

Born in Wick near Littlehampton.

Christened on 08/05/1930 at All Saint's Church, Wick.

Known as Betty.

Moved to Hastings when she was fairly young and grew up as a tomboy. She did not like her younger brother Tony too much and was always fighting with him. I believe it was probably due to a bit of jealousy as she was no longer the baby of the family and Tony was spoilt. Despite her dislike of Tony, she lost her top two front teeth in a fight, when she was 11, defending him from a group of bullies. During her time in Hastings, Betty lived at many different addresses and some of the moves happened at night which led her to believe the family were doing a 'moonlight flit' to avoid the rent man. Some of the addresses the family lived at were St Thomas's Road, 33 Braybrooke Road and 136 Braybrooke Road.

The primary school Betty attended was Mount Pleasant school. For a short history of the school expansion, click here.

Betty obviously attended Sunday school regularly as she kept a scripture examination certificate that she was awarded in 1940. This certificate was awarded with honours and came form St Luke's Presbyterian School.

The family also spent some time in Hendon at 3 Dehar Crescent. I believe this was during the war, which would explain why Betty and her brother were evacuated.

During the war Betty was evacuated, with her younger brother Tony, to Bedford. Each time I asked her about her experiences she would just say it was not nice and clam up. She told me, in later years, that she had regularly been touched inappropriately by the man of the house. It is a shame she didn't tell her mother that when she came up to fetch Tony after it was discovered he had been ill treated. It was while she was evacuated that Betty went off sugar in her drinks. The parents used Betty's sugar rations and she had to have jam in her tea if she wanted it sweet. She told me this tasted so revolting, that she just stopped having anything sweet.

Betty was confirmed at St Paul's Church in Bedford in 1944, so obviously during her evacuation and she took her first communion at St Mary's Church in Bedford.

I don't know the name of the school Betty went to in Bedford but I do know she attended Tower Road School in St Leonards on Sea, Sussex. The school buildings were built in a huge dip, the walls around the playground were about 30' high (or that's what they appeared to be when I was younger) and there was a ramp leading down into the playground. I have just found a piece about the opening of the school here. This school was later renamed as Woodlands Secondary School for girls (where I attended) and years later it became Christchurch Junior School. The majority of the old building was knocked down but the new buildings still occupy the old playground. Betty's great grandson went to school here. Betty passed exams there in 1944, aged 14, in French, hand writing and English (with distinction). These were all elementary certificates.

After the war the family returned to Hastings where they bought a house at 14 Brook Street

Betty was always an athletic person who enjoyed sports and took part in the activities in Hastings Youth Week, held in June, in 1948. On June 10th she came 3rd in the girl's 17-19 year old girls 150 yard race and also 3rd in the girls 100 yard race.

Straight after leaving school, she went to work at Pelham's Chemist in the High Street, Old Town in Hastings. The shop is still there, complete with the tiled name under the shop window, only today it is a florists shop.

She became godmother to Julia Pelham, (the daughter of the chemist's owner) at St Clements Church, Hastings on 14/08/1949 .

Betty decided to be different to the rest of her siblings and wanted to join the RAF rather than the Army. She enrolled as a member of the Women's Junior Air Corps on 18/02/1946, 12 days after her 16th birthday. She belonged to Unit 208 in Hastings and meetings took place on Monday nights from 19-00 to 21-30 hours at 4 Carlisle Parade. Betty was promoted to Lance Corporal on 18/2/1948, 2 years after her enrollment; Corporal on 21/06/1948, Sergeant on 01/05/1950 and a unit Sergeant on 06/11/1950. While a cadet Betty had 4 flights in a Fairchild Argos, which she told me she thoroughly enjoyed. On 21/04/1948 she gained her 1st Ability badge and on 03/11/1948 she gained her Air Ability badge. Betty left the WJAC on 07/05/1951, after 5 years.

On 18/05/1951, Betty signed up for 4 years service in the WRAF. Her serial number was 2816958 and she joined as an A.C.W/2.

Not long after she enlisted, betty attended a big service in St Paul's Cathedral which was attended by the King and Queen and General Dwight D. Eisenhower. This service took place on July 4th, 1951 and it was a Service of Commemoration of 28,000 American dead in war time comradeship with the people of Britain and of Dediscation of the Roll of Honour for the American Memorial Chapel. Betty kept the booklet about the ceremony and it appears all her service pals signed it for her. I believe they had all probably recently finished their basic training and were going off to different RAF stations. Betty also managed to get the autographs of Dickie Valentine and Douglas Fairbanks Junior, who were also at the service. She had often talked about these but had never shown me them so I was a bit sceptical. I found them after her death.

Betty spent 2 years in the WRAF working as an airframe mechanic on Vampires and Meteors.

It was while Betty was doing a course at RAF St Athans in Wales, (where she was stationed), that she met her future husband. She contracted German measles during her course and had to join the next course to finish it, so bumping into her husband to be.

Married Lawrence Edwin Smithson (b 1931 in Yorkshire) on 29/3/1952 in St Andrews Church, Hastings, Sussex.

Their children:

Lesley Ann 31/5/1954
Jacqueline Theresa 8/2/1957
Kim Rosemary9/4/1959

After their wedding, Betty still worked at St Athans until she was posted to Germany and Eddie was posted elsewhere. At that point, Betty left the servcie.

Eddie was postesd to Singapore and went on ahead. Betty sailed out to Singapore on board the S.S. Lancashire, sailing from Liverpool on 26/02/1954. She had had to sail, rather than fly as she was expecting her first child. Betty had cabin 76, berth D. I have a menu for the night of 25/03/1954 with a note on the bottom saying "All clocks will be advanced 30 minutes at midnight tonight. Obviously the beginning of BST but why half an hour instead of an hour?

The first place they lived in Singapore was 103 Lorong J Telok Karau Road in Katong. This was a shared house where they had one room to themselves while sharing a kitchen and bathroom. They later moved into a married quarter at 17 Mornington Crescent, RAF Seletar. They had an armour there to help with the work who also helped look after their daughter, Lesley.

After Eddie's tour of duty came to an end, Betty and Lesley returned home to England on 21/02/1956. They lived at 34B Springfiled Road, St Leonards on Sea, Sussex. Eddie was sent on a training course for a different aircaft type and ended up serving in Malta for several months on his own. Whenever he was training or off on an unaccompanied posting, Betty and the girls always headed back to St Leonards on Sea where Betty's family still lived.

Eddie was then posted to RAF Watton, near Norwich in Norfolk. The family they lived at 34 Walploe Street, Norwich until they got a married quarter on the camp.

After the birth of their second daughter, Betty and Eddie moved into a 2 bedroomed married quarter at 15 Farnborough Road, at RAF Watton.

When daughter number 3 came along, the family moved into a larger 3 bedroomed married quarter at 25 Boscombe Road

From Watton, Eddie was posted to RAF Bruggen in Germany in 1961. As usual, he went ahead of the family and lived there for several months on his own while waiting for accomodation. During this time Betty and the girls lived with her mother at 190 Bohemia Road, St Leonards on Sea, Sussex.

Accomodation in a block of flats in Eindhoven, Holland became available and Betty and the girls moved in there. I remember when we flew out to Germany form gatwick airport, we spent the night in the Union Jack Club by Waterloo station in London. My grandmother stayed the night as well. We all travelled up by rail from Hastings to Charing Cross Station. They were only there for 3 or 4 months before they moved to a maisonette at 38K Webshall Strausee, Moenchengladbach in Germnay. This was an RAF off camp accomodation and the family lived there for the rest of the 3 year posting.

Eddie was sent off for more training on his return to England and once more Betty and the girls went down to St Leonards on Sea to live until a married quarter was available. They left Germany from RAF Wilderath on 2/10/1964.

Once a married quarter became available, Betty and the girls moved again; this time to 7 Valetta Road, RAF Dishforth, North Yorkshire. This was not far from Ripon.

The next move was a fairly short one from one part of Yorkshire to another. The family lived at 185 AMQ, RAF Driffield in the East Riding of Yorkshire.

In 1967 the family moved into 126 Pine Square, RAF Wattisham, Suffolk. This camp was near Ipswich.

Betty and the girls left RAF Wattisham in July 1970 and went to live temporarily with Betty's mother at 190 Bohemia Road. They then moved into a rented 3 bedroomed semi-detached house at 40 Shirley Drive, St Leonards on Sea. The monthly rent on the house was £36 and 8 shillings.

The family lived there for 7 months and Betty got a job working in Theakers, a chemist chain, in Battle Road, just a short walk from the house.

After 7 months, the family moved again, this time to 16 St Margarets Raod, St Leonards. This was a large victorian style terraced house that was arranged over 5 floors. The caretaker lived on the bottom 2 levels and Betty and the girls lived on the top 3. You could see the sea from the top 2 stories at the back of the house and it was only about a 7 minute walk to the pier and the beach.

Betty still worked for Theakers but was able to change shops and went to work in the town centre branch. After a falling out amongst the staff, Betty and one other employee went to work for another Chemist. This time it was a small time chemists named Cathaways, along Bohemia Road.

The family stayed in that house until 1973 when Eddie was posted to RAF Brize Norton in Oxfordshire. Lesley had left home, Jacqui went to live with her grandmother and finish school while Betty and Kim moved in with Eddie at 99 Abbey Road, Witney, Oxon. This was a married quarter and much nicer than the ones at Carterton. Eddie took over the quarter on 29/03/1973 at 09-00 hours, his and Betty's 21st wedding anniversary.

While living in Witney, Betty went to work at the local Waitrose supermarket. She was trained to operate a chechkout till but very soon moved onto serving on the delicatessen counter. She really enjoyed this job and stayed there until she moved back down to Hastings again.

Eddie decided to retire from the RAF and went to work for the Saudi Arabian Air Force in 1975. Betty had taken Kim back to Hastings to live as she had gotten in with a bad crowd, Lesley was still living away and Jacqui went to lodge with the next door neighbours. The house at Witney was handed back to the RAF.

Betty and Kim rented a lovely house at 8 Hamilton Gardens in Hastings and stayed there for several months.

During one of Eddie's trips home to England he and Betty bought their first ever home. This was 9 Applewood Close in St Leonards on Sea. Betty lived there for a couple of years before she decided to go out to Saudi to live with her husband. The house was sold to Betty's younger sister, Alison, and her husband.

Betty arrived at Dhahran airport, Saudi Arabia, aboard BA 121 on 13/11/1978 at aproximately 19-00 hours.

During Eddie's time in Saudi he and Betty went on holiday to different exotic places, electing to off set their flying allowance (for home visits) on the cost of somewhere war. They visited Hong Kong, Thailand, Singapore, Kenya, Barbados, Mauritius, the Seychelles and several trips to Jersey. They really enjoyed these holidays.

Betty and Eddie lived in Saudi for about 3 years before they returned home to Hastings. They bought another house, 24 Shirley Drive in St Leonards on Sea for the sum of £24,950. This house was not far from the house they had rented back in 1970. Eddie went on a training course to do with helicopter engines. He then got a job at Fleetlands in Gosport, Hampshire so another move was on the cards.

Betty and Eddie moved into 169 Privett Road in Gosport in about 1983. They lived there quite happily for about 9 years and always had one or more grandchildren to stay during the school holidays. It was always Betty who asked if she could have them stay as she loved to take them out places. I really don't know who enjoyed it the most, her or the grandchildren! Both Betty and Eddie joined the RAF Association while they were down in Gosport and attended their meetings and functions.

Betty suffered from breast cancer and had a mastectomy in January 1991. I can't remember if she had the operation in Salisbury hospital or Queen Anne's hospital, Cosham, Hampshire. She made a quick recovery and was looking after 2 of her grandchildren for 10 days, 5 weeks after the op. I remember her telling me how strange it was, how she felt lopsided and how she nearly fell off a chair whhile changing a lightbulb as she was unbalanced!

Betty had reconstruction surgery a year after the operation and that took place at either Salisbury or Cosham. One op was done in one hospital and one in the other.

In 1992 Eddie was told he had to retire as he was a civil servant and had reached that age so they decided it was time to move again.

Betty and Eddie took their time to look around and decided to move to Ramsey in Huntingdonshire. They lived at 53 Blenheim Drive in Ramsey.

While in Ramsey, Betty became a member of the ladies wing of the Royal British Legion and made many friends. She worked as a volunteer in the Legion shop, sold poppies and went up to the Royal Albert Hall each year for the Remembrance service.

Betty and Eddie finally decided to return to Hastings to live in 2000, staying with her daughter Kim and her family in Battle Road, St Leonards on Sea while looking for a house to rent. They also spent several months living with their grandson Jamie (Kim's son) and his girlfriend while changing houses.

Betty and Eddie lived at 28 Pine Avene, Hastings, moved to 8 Berlin Road, Hastings and then finally moved into 40A Queens Road, a flat above Gamleys toy shop. There was a lovely view of part of Hastings Castle from her bedroom window. This flat was very close to homes her parents, grandparents and great grandparents had lived. Of course, she didn't know this at the time they moved in as I hadn't found all the relatives at that time. By a strange coincidence, the flat was rented through an estate agents situated at 109 Queens Road. The flat above this shop was once occupied by Betty's parents and younger sister.

Betty was diagnosed with uterine cancer and in March 2004 she under went a hysterectomy in Brighton hospital. This time she was not so lucky with avoiding radiotherapy treatment and had about 6 treatments. She did not mind those so much, she was more annoyed by the fact that she was limited in what she could do for 6 weeks after her op. She had always been an active person and hated the restrictions put on her.

Eddie died of a heart attack on the morning of Monday January 1st 2007, leaving Betty rather shell shocked. He had been ill on and off for years but this came out of the blue. He was cremated at Hastings crematorium on Thursday the 11th January on a wet, miserable day.

Betty began to suffer from awful pains in her hips and also pain in her right knee. The doctor discovered her knee was in need of a bit of repair and this wasd probably contributing to the pain in her hips. So in May 2007 she went into hospital to have it cleaned out. It didn't do the trick, the hip pain was still there.

The hip pain was discovered later in the year on a visit to her oncologist - the bones were breaking up due to cancer.

On Christmas Eve 2008, Betty was given the news that she had been dreading - the cancer had returned, this time to her stomach and this time it was untreatable. She was given months to live.

In the second week of January, Betty was admitted to St Michael's Hospice for a 2 week assesment. Because of the swelling in her legs and stomach and the fact she couldn't manage any of the stairs in her flat, it was decided that she should remain at the hospice. She was moved from her ward downstairs, to room 3, a private room on the floor above. The hospice was set in beautiful grounds and Betty had a lovely view of these from her room. The house Rider Haggard wrote 'She' in, was about 200 yards away from her room. The care she got there was fantastic and they put up with her cantankerousness very well.

On Friday 25/04/2008, Betty passed away in her room. She was cremated at Hastings crematorium on a beautiful, suny warm day on Thursday the 8th May.
