George Deer MP was my great uncle on my mother’s side. His wife was not Ivy but Olive Gertrude (nee Stoakes), born 1897. As a child in the 1960s I experienced her kindness and generosity and superb knitting skills - I still have old dolls (bairns) wearing knitted dresses she conjured out of nowhere in minutes.

Emma thank you. I think Ivy may have been his second wife. I have seen the entry for both of them at this house in the electoral registers Leave a Reply. |
