Emergency Maternity Home Eaton Hall Retford

A Memory of Eaton.

I was very interested to see both Margaret's comments. I was born at Eaton Hall on 15th October 1944 when my mother was evacuated to Mansfield. I was born on a Sunday and as my mother was in heavy labour (and grunting and moaning a lot) she was 'told off' by one of the nurses and told to keep the noise down as Matron (whose office was below) did not like to be disturbed. Knowing my mother she would probably have given the nurse a rather rude retort. Has anyone any photographs of Eaton Hall as it was then? I'm compiling my family tree and would love to have some. Please get in touch to share memories.
Regards,
Carol
