That Might be Me?
I was born in the chalet that this photo on the left partly shows, in 1951. The person sunbathing could be me at 13 or 14 years of age. I was Christine Elliott then. The name was 'Lucerne', my great grand parents owned 'San Remo', next door, from about 1938. All the family went there to live in 1940, when their house was bombed in Stonehouse.
Chamber Rock

Scraesdon
My family, being mother, father, brother and I (Nancy Laythorn) moved to Scraesdon Cottage in 1940. Under the watchful eye of the Headmistress, Mrs Crabb, Joy Maddever, Margaret Hitchcock and I passed our 11 plus, continuring our education at Saltash Grammar. We were driven by bus each day.
During the Second World War we had a number of foreign soldiers stationed in the Fort, British, Polish, American and finally the German Prisoners of War.
It was the Americans that that made an impact, as being only 8/9 years old my brother and I were invited into the fort to watch the Ensa shows, as we did when the British were there. Sadly the Americans went from Scraesdon to the Normandy beaches, few surviving. If anyone knows the info on the American regiments I would be interested to know.

LOOKING FOR MY ANCESTORS
In 2006 I visited Millbrook with my family with the aim of trying to research my ancestors who lived in West street between 1840 to 1870. alas, We unsuccessfully search the cemeteries an parish church, but I still had the feeling of belonging. Unfortunately we did not have much time in millbrook, and I hope to revisit in the not to distant future. In the meantime if there any Bryants still living there I would love to make contact.
