Colour for Gt Aunt Myfanwy please?
« on: Friday 25 January 08 11:55 GMT (UK) »
Hi there....

This is Myfanwy Phillips (1904-1999). Photographed in Jun 1928 (at about 3.37pm judging by her watch!! :)

She married Reginald George White Facey in Builth Wells in 1938.

Could I get some colour for her please? She had blue/grey eyes!

Thanks very much

Did she have a long engagement Keith?  She is wearing a ring on her left hand  :-\

Lovely photo.... where are you finding them all? Keep going though, you probably have some of mine tucked away in there somewhere... or is that my wishful thinking  ;D

She is beautiful isn't she  ;)
I wanted to call my daughter Myfanwy but my mum said everyone would call her Fanny. I tried to convince mum that she would be called Van but I lost.
She got named Leeanne, just like 40 thousand other 1960's kids. Oh well, I guess she wouldn't have thanked me, Fanny in Australia in the 70's & 80's would have had a hard time.  ;D
Cheers,
Leonie.

She was lovely yes....always took the greatest care of herself...She was the Llanwrtyd Wells beauty queen in the 1920s. She was always known as "Mannie"....(thank goodness! ;D).

She was engaged for 10 years..I assume to the same chap she married in 1938......but who knows?.....looking like that, she probably had loads of suitors :).

She was the sister of my Grandma - Elizabeth Phillips - so recently coloured here.

Thank you for your kind comments
