Hello BESHARP

It's some time since I used RootsChat and I am not sure if this reply will reach you - I hope so.   If you would like to contact me by email - mbstlineone@gmail.com - I should love to hear from you.   I have very many memories of Fonthill and am in contact with a handful of old pupils.   Moira Norwich

 Not sure that I have got the hang of this yet.   Hoping to hear from you.   Do you remember the Savilles or the Humes?   I certainly remember the paintings and the spinet except I always thought it was a dulcetone.   It stood for a while outside Nellie and Rene's sitting room between Briar Rose and Mead.   I used to play it too.   Do please write again.   Moira Norwich (my alias).

I am researching the former pupils of Thetford Girls' Grammar School and am aware that Freda Alice Lucy FOX was a Matron at Fonthill House in 1939.  Do any of Fonthill's former pupils on this forum remember her?
Many thanks for any help you can give, David
