Cromwell. thanks for all this information. I was born on 22nd November 1940, a fire-watching neighbour fetched the midwife on his motorbike, but she wouldn't come with him unless she wore his tin hat. My mother told me she spent whole nights under the stairs with me, while my older sisters were in the damp Morrison shelter.
I am responding to a two year old post about the photos. I have a book: "How We Lived Then" by Norman Longmate, which contain some of your photos: "Collecting the mail", "Delivering the milk" and "Rescuing family treasures". This last is three ladies and a boy - one woman is pushing a barrow. There could be more from this book. I'll keep looking, and you keep up the good work. What is the health hazard with old photographs and documents? The originals wold be better in a museum than photocopies.
