Lyn,
I still have all the paperwork,to do with evacuation,they have been posted on the forum,on a thread called...Evacuation Papers...I think.I have tried to put them in my photo's.but it comes up "wrong file".
 
Lyn,
These had gone from the first thread,"evacuation papers",so I am posting them again,for the history buffs,new members and those of us who may have short term memory loss.
 
those are fascinating ray and must i would think be quite rare....as you said you ended up not going so if it was not for that fact you would not have these documents..makes me sad just reading them but thanks for sharing them with us...
