Sally Simcox

My mother, Sally Simcox was born in 1904 and lived with a large family of brothers and sisters in Boldon Colliery. She left school when 131/2 to work as a shop assistant for 5 shillings per week at a place called Hornes. I am unsure of the name of this shop and so I request confirmation. Shortly thereafter Hornes went out of business so Sally moved to the Meadow Dairy for 10 shillings per week. She was promoted eventually to manageress at £2 and 5 shillings per week.
