WLA was disbanded in Oct 1950,so a little more info that could help narrow it down it for you Celia.

Kay??? Yes it is possible Joan could be a little older. Both girls joined WLA in 1947. But my sister in law remembers celebrating Joans 21st birthday in a pub, with friends. That was the last time the two girls were together. That was in 1951.
thank you for the info Rose, will make a note of it. Regards celia

The one born in Greenwich had a brother called Leonard George.

Parents look to be

Marriages Dec 1926 (>99%)
Seaton Thomas H Williams Greenwich 1d 1802
Williams Elizabeth M Seaton Greenwich 1d 1802

If it helps.

Would she be born a little earlier than 1930?as in 1945 she would still say be only be 14-16....would that help you narrow down births and a possible birth place?

Trying to help my sister iin law trace a wartime friend. Both were in the Womens Land Army together. Stationed near Newbury. Friends name is/was Joan Seaton, born about 1930 in London. Her father was a green grocer. my sister in laws name is Gladys Winfield, but known as Tiny.Joan had a brother, think his name was George. Any info would be helpful. thanks :-) Celia Long
