Many thanks for looking. Yes that is my Aunt Vera and on the record my Uncle Jim is also listed at 66 North Parade Aberystwyth. Parents though are Joseph Grisdale b 1904 and Mary Jane Rawlinson b 1905. (both from Liverpool)
It looks like my dad Joseph and his elder sister May Grisdale were placed separately as evacuee's and I have not yet located them.
Best wishes
Paul
Can't believe this Post and the Hand of Fate.
Once upon a Time ..... I moved from Liverpool in 1977 to Brecon with my Job then upon Retirement I moved to just outside Aberystwyth in 2016
I decided to Research the Building I now live in and its History
Spend many a day in Aberyswyth Town Library as well as the National Library for Wales there.
Aberystwyth Council Minutes for 1939 showed the Mansion was Seconded as an Isolation Hospital from 1st September 1939
A Florrie Hamer deposited a File with Photos of her Memories there.
They include Photos of Nurses with Dunkirk Veterans and RAF Pilots and 1941 Evacuees
I took Copies for my Research File about 2 years ago and only last week I thought I'd post the front and rear of the Evacuees Photos on the Facebook site for Liverpool Family History Society Forum and ask if any relative was Evacuated here.
But I couldn't remember which Photo Album I had saved them into on my External Harddrive.
Just Researching the Birth in 1857 of an Ancestor of the Owner of the Mansion caused me to require Help on Rootschat so I went into the Cardingshire Forum to make my Post and saw Post on Evacuees, had a quick look at it out of curiosity and couldn't believe the unusual Name Grisdale !
One the Photos I have is of a Nurse with an Infrant in a Basket on a Bicycle at Our Front Entrance and there are TWO Girls sitting on the Step
The Rear of the Photo dates it as 1941 and gives the Girls Names as
= Moira Cain and ? Grisedale as Evacuees from Liverpool.
May born 1926 would have been about 12 which is the approx age of the Two Girls in the Photo
Also when I visited the National Library on the Hill out of Aberyswyth
The Helpful Researcher there stated her Father was a Policeman who met all the Trains arriving in 1941 with Evacuees and it was his job to rehouse them all.
Small World.
