 ;D Kia Ora Ladies
The  "picture' I have of the two of you elbowing each other out of the way. like the paparrazi , on my behalf has given me the best belly laugh I've had all day!
THANK YOU BOTH so very much. I do so appreciate you thinking of me! Thanks for the additional info Sue- right now my head is whirling with the WA Williams - I'll have to check out whether there is a connection!!!
I'll be very greedy and write to you both personally!
Regards & many thanks.

I have been to Teignmouth today and there is a book in the library - or a series of books called - Teignmouth at War by Viv Wilson Part 1 & Part 2. It lists the casualties but I only copied the page for 11 Higher Brook Street. There was another Williams mentioned but I didn't copy that page.  I am only here in Devon for a few days and I am not going to Teignmouth again - would anyone else be able to get a copy of the full casualty list for Marlene ?

I have received all the library excerpts you sent thank you so very much!
I also received the email about the grave - thank you so much for putting flowers there! I can't wait to see the photos!
Gratitude knows no bounds!
Will be in touch personally!

Dear Marlene
It was a pleasure especially in this super weather we are having.
The lady in the library at Teignmouth was an absolute angel and stayed with me for half an hour pointing out the books for me.
I am sure if you need any more information from the library and dropped them a line or an email- I am sure that they would be very helpful.
