Mrs K Hall of Bancroft Ont.
« on: Sunday 26 July 20 15:09 BST (UK) »
Trying to track down anthing about a Mrs K Hall.
 She was during WW11 living in Witney Oxfordshire UK, maybe some connection to UK RAF ?
I know she lived in Canada & was in some way connected to my late Mother

She was known as "Kath" Hall. Maybe Kathleen/Katherine ? Probably born abt 1915/20 ?
She had two daughters Pat & Rowena born about 1940/1950,s
Her address was PO Box RR3 Bancroft Ontario

Any assistance much appreciated

1968 Voters' List shows a Kathleen & Murray Hall, farmers, living at RR #1, Bancroft.  In the 1972 list, there is a Sharon Hall listed in the home, perhaps another daughter.

Thank Eileen, most kind  That may help as I have never been able to discover the name of her husband.  The mother & her 1 or 2 daughters visited my late mother in Sussex about late 50,/60s
There may also have been a connection to Winnipeg from my distant memory
I can only assume Kathleen may have been related some how or maybe just a friend from WW11 times when my parents were in Oxfordshire . On with the search

So, not the right K. Hall given the names of her children on the gravestone.
