1 – Channel Island Evacuees in Wakefield, Yorkshire, can you recognise anyone?
2. Do you know Patrick Nolan, or his family? Patrick evacuated to Britain in June 1940 with his brother Victor. I have no other information as yet.
3. John David Goodwin was evacuated to Bury with the Notre Dame du Rosiare school, but cannot remember the name of the people who he was billeted with until his mother found him. Can you help?
4. Does anyone know Milly Parker (her maiden name) who was evacuated as a helper with St Josephs school to Stockport in June 1940? Her friend Maureen Dorrian would love to get in contact with Milly.
5. Does anyone know Stanley Bienvenu or his family? Stanley was evacuated to Stockport in 1940 and I would love to contact him.
Are you one of these Guernsey children, evacuated on The Viking? Please contact me if so!
The photograph below shows Mrs Saltmarsh, a Guernsey evacuee who lived in Stockport, Cheshire, during the war. Thank you for the help you gave me in finding Mrs Saltmarsh’s son! However, he would love to know more about the Saltmarsh’s time in England, as he was very young at the time. His parents lived in a road called ‘Whitefield’, in Heaton Norris, and his grandparents lived above the chemist shop in Great Moor on Buxton Road. His cousin worked in the chemist shop and her name was Barbara Courtel, do you remember her? Do contact me if so.
