Hi, Evelina and Walter were my grandparents. Never met them as they died long before I was born. George Douglas (Dougie) was my dad and he grew up in Church Lane before serving in North Africa and Palestine. I met my Aunt Joyce when I was a boy, she visited us from South Africa. I believe her daughter was still alive not long ago, my brother would have more details. I might be able to provide more details privately. I think you have listed there my Aunt Ada who I remember being in a wheelchair. The oldest daughter was my Aunt Mary who’s son Walter died on HMS Hood in 1941 aged 20. I also had an uncle Walt whom I met again when I was a boy but died in the late 1980s if I recall, he lived somewhere in London.
