Hi Edward,
It's great to hear from you again. I was wondering why there was no reply. Sometimes people decide they don't want to go any further and you don't hear back from them, so I'm glad you have replied.
All I can think of with the story regarding the car was that I think Mum was in the early stages of Alzheimer's when she told me about it. So maybe she was mixed up but she did seem pretty sure about what she was telling me. We'll never know.
I don't even know how Mum managed to keep in contact with Lorraine when she went to England as the rest of the family didn't seem to keep in contact.
Yes I am in Australia. We went to England in 1967 when I was a child and did visit various family members in Ireland and England so I'm not sure why Mum would not have visited Lorraine then if they were in contact. Mum had also visited England at different times after that. I really can't remember if Mum told me if she had visited Lorraine on one of those trips.
I might send an email to my younger brother who was living in England for a few years. I'll ask him if he ever met Lorraine.
Lots of missing gaps.
Kind Regards
Catherine
