Early Memories

A Memory of Chadwell St Mary.

I lived just outside the village in a small army camp as my father was in the army. My most vivid memory is standing in the lunch line at the junior school and hearing that King George VI had died. The whisper started at the front of the line and spread down to me almost the last. I also remember gleaning for potatoes . I went to Sunday school in the church and visited the library nearly every day. I was only there for a few months as my father was transferred during the time the school was an evacuation centre when the Thames flooded. As the school was closed I never said goodbye to my friends
