Since the amily lived in Swindon, Wilts, I'm wondering why she was in Gloucester, so I ontacted the Girl's Friendly Society who tell me that their records and emorabilia are held at the Women's Library at the London Metropolitan niversity. I am awaiting a reply from them, but in the meantime I'm wondering f anyone on the list has come across this home.
