HADFIELD/LINNELL side of Sheila’s family:

[symbol] [underlined] Sheila Bygman [/underlined] (nee Hay) d. 24 November 2001
[symbol] [underlined] Ian [/underlined] her brother, Killed in an aircrash in 1940
Their father [underlined] Jack V. Hay [/underlined] was divorced from their mother [underlined] Sydney Hay [/underlined] (nee Hadfield) and married his second wife Maud

HAY side: Jack and Maud had a daughter.

[symbol] [underlined] Rhona Hay [/underlined], who did not change her name when she married Keith Macleod.

Peter and I met Rhona at Sheila’s funeral. We talked about Ian, the details of whose death were never known to me. Rhona offered to send me some information about the crash, which she kindly did. The material is here.

When Sheila became very ill and was looked after in St. John’s and St Helen’s Hospice I began to know more about Sheila’s side of the family. More came out when her relations and friends came together at the funeral and afterwards. We were given leaflets about Sheila’s family history researches in London and in India.
