Thank you for letting us know the sad news about Lee. Her posts were always informative and I will miss her presence, especially as she was kind enough from time to time to let me know about the doings of the RUBERY family who lived in her part of the world (down-under!). Another update on the 1939 application from me. A few days ago I received a letter from Smedley Hydro which I opened with great excitement, only to find it was from the GRO telling me about the increase in prices and decrease in services...:-( However I have this morning received an email about my application, which I'll copy below. I wonder what has sent my query off to the specialists?!
