    The Family Butcher

    I met Bill after he retired, he was working delivering flowers for a shop in Hawthorn Rd, but this was only temporary I understand. His brother kept the shop going for a while, but he ended up working for another butchers, less pressure and strain.

    He retired several years ago, the shop is now some kind of restaurant.

    I seem to recollect now, I think when Phylis was questioned about her German sounding name during WW2 she added an extra f? But not sure what difference that may have made. I wonder she did not take Adkins name?

    I understood that Phylis made arrangements so Vera would have a roof over her head as her own health deteriorated, whether this was a will or deed transfer by solicitor I am not sure. I was trying to find out if Phylis had any family.

    Thank you very much indeed, will take a look. I was wondering from how long the two ladies had lived together in Birmingham. I know they told me that they had a house near a church halfway down Boldmere Rd for a long while, with a bus stop outside their front door, where people used to sit on...

    I understand Mr Mudd died soon afterwards with lung condition. Thank you for letting me know, do you have exact date perhaps please. You have been very kind in helping me with this, thank you again.

    Sounds right, as she would have been about 24 at outbreak of WW2.
