Handwriting Deciphering & Recognition / Re: 1918 Photograph

Hi Carole

I think you were right about the war work prior to going to Sainsburys. She seems to be wearing a type E suit - (see http://www.archive.org/details/protectiveclothi00grearich ) which would suggest that she was involved in metal working or handling machinery rather than chemicals.

Regards Simon.

Hi Carole

Many thanks for the prompt reply. With regards to Leah Leedom, Pauline Leedom was going to contact her on Sunday as it was her birthday and ask her about her family history. Hopefully she will be able to find out where Leah fits in within the family tree.

My Father has very few photos of either his Parents or Grandparents so it would be interesting to view yours. I will ask him if he knows what she may have been doing when she was a child.

Regards Simon.

Hi Carole

I have been on Rootschats for a while but never posted. My Grand Mother was Dorothy Leedom the younger sister to your Grand Mother Eleanor. There have been several things I wanted to ask you. I have been abit stumped with regards to going further back in to the past mainly with Jane Leedoms family plus the whole of the Carter family. So hopefully you can help me with that. As you are aware Dorothy had 3 sons. I am her GrandSon. My Uncle has recently be talking to Pauline Leedom, Wife of the late Graham Leedom. It came to light about a Leah Leedom who lives in New Zealand and was (age removed by moderator) in April, have you heard of here. Pauline seems to think she was born in New Zealand, is she a descendant from Jane Leedoms family. Hope you maybe able to help on any of the points above.

Regards Simon
