Next was Reginald, who worked at the Gloucester munitions factory. and was an avid Mormon. Next came my mother Mabel, who married my father Wilfred (Bill ) Tingey, and lastly, the youngest, uncle Alf. Rupert bought Dunroamin from the proceeds of their large boarding house in London, which he had purchased with a sum of money given to him by his former employer, Lord Astor. Lady Asquith employed Emma, and she was either a cook, or her ladies maid - never actually got to know which. There was a prized book, kept in a locked cupboard, from Margot to Emma.
