Comments about this page

Miss Jane Randell was my auntie (Mrs Spick), married to Joe. Mrs Deacon was her elder sister.
Very interesting to read about my relations.

Thank you for this - the page is now amended above. Further reference to the Randell's can be found on the page describing A.D, Moulsher's shop - "A village shop in Bottesford" - which was recently added by Sue Dunsmore.

Apologies for the confusion between Jane and Gertrude Randell. The photograph and the names were given to us by a 95 year-old-lady, who can perhaps be forgiven for getting the names slightly wrong after 60 or 70 years!
