First World War Memories Of Girls Working On The Land

A Memory of Terling.

I have a small book of the memories of my mother and aunt who worked on Lord Rayleigh's farm during the First World War. Does anyone else have relatives who worked there? Would anyone like to read these? I would love to have a photo of the farm.

My mother Gladys was born in Terling 1911,along with two other sisters Phyllis and Vera, their mother was Alice Elizabeth, father Charles {Charlie} Wylds, lived in the tied house opposite the Shop/Post Office. My Grandfather worked for Lord Rayleigh on the Traction Steam Engines. I have many fond memories of the times we visitied our Grandparents in the quaint little village as a child growing up in Essex. We still love to drive through the countryside, then stop by our grandparents gravesites on our visits back to the "Old Country" when possible. I have a few photographs of family members, but mostly my brother kept the ones of my Grandfather working the land.
