Title
My Maternal Grandparents - Their Family Childhood and Wartime Experiences
Description
A document written as a Summer Project whilst Aidan was at school. She discusses their early years after her grandparents got married in London. During the war the family moved to Wales for safety. After the war John, (possibly her brother), became a respected vet who specialised in cancer. There are short biographies of Alfred Carter and John Carter. Aidan then details the plan for her project. There are questions and answers for her grandmother, Honor Saunders, the war time questions and family history provide great detail. Her grandfather, Roy Saunders is also questioned in detail. He was unfit for military service, worked for the railways then applied and was accepted for work on the railways in Nigeria.
