Not sure if anyone will be able to help with this, but here goes.
My Uncle Ron attended St Philips Grammar School but although he would have been 14 or maybe just 15 when war was announced, was evacuated to a Mrs Cheese in Hereford.
Does anyone know why he would have been evacuated at his age - my dad (his brother) was only 8 and he wasn't evacuated, he remembers my uncle going though.
Apparently Uncle loved country life, but not as much as the city, as he came home and enlisted. He served in Africa I think, will have to re-check with dad.
Thanks, Sue
