Nan's funeral was arranged by Albert Shepherd's relatives, and Dad and I had little or nothing to do with it. She was cremated at Reading Crematorium, Dad and I attended but left to go home almost immediately after the service. I received one pitiful little bag with a couple of photo albums and her threadbare teddy bear, which my daughter Alison still has! None of her papers were handed over, so I have very little to go on as far as tracing her history back. Resident at Keeper's Cottage, Pingewood from marriage to 1960 when DG Pembroke died.
Moved to Stephen's Fir's, Mortimer. Remarried on 14th July 1967 (Albert Shepherd - stoker, retired). Moved to 20, Windmill Court, Mortimer in 1988, where she lived until her death. Children were:
