Evacuees From Newcastle

A Memory of Maryport.

I've just come across some of my mother, Rosa Lamb's memories that she jotted down years ago. They recall her being evacuated, along with her brother Tommy to a home in Nelson Street belonging to a Mr & Mrs Esther & William Rothery(?) Her sister Doreen was placed with a Mr & Mrs McPartland (?). She said it was so different to where they'd left, and they naturally missed my grandparents very much, but it was a real adventure to them all. She always meant to go back but sadly, never managed to make that nostalgic trip before she died.
