Notes:
"As tough as the devil's toenails" - Quote
from her mother.
"In her late teens she was put into a
Home because her mother found her difficult
to control. She had the girls in the Home gang up on the
Matron who then took her to court. Her mum,
Annie,
wanted her to stay in the home." sister,
Gladys.
NB From me "Times were very difficult then
and in the area they lived. Small house, 6
kids. Husband who died aged 44."
She
is fondly remembered by her children and her
daughters-in-law who remember her as a kind
and caring mother & grandmother. I remember
her humour especially. She was extremely
good at telling stories which would
have us rolling with laughter. Times were
never boring with Aunty Evie! |
