Jos (Josephine) Mary (Pears) b 1898 married on 16 Oct 1918 in Villupuram Herbert Riley (son of James Riley)
Sideline: I
(Walford) met aunty Jos in Manchester around 1975. I was driving to a
business meeting and came across a
road I remembered from the address on
letters
written by her to my mum and dad in India. I rang my mum and dad
for her house number. She was still there. We had a
lovely evening. I
noticed one of her fingers was
missing. I asked her how she lost it. For
those of
you from India, remember those big heavy water taps (with a side
push down handle) on the outside pipes....well, when
she was a child one
fell on her hand and chopped her
finger off. It was in Villupuram. |
