6. Re: [WarBrides] Daughter of the British Empire [1]
Dear Michelle, Many thanks for this message. Although I knew of the DBE, I didn't have their website address. I am still working on my postgraduate studies on Australian WWII war brides in the U.S., and in fact have just been upgraded from MA (Hons) to a PhD, so am still very much involved with researching this fascinating topic. I was in Washington DC for the last reunion of the WWII War Brides Association in July 2004 which was wonderful. I regret that I won't be able to be at the next reunion in Seatt
7. Florence Ethel Parry (nee Tamplin) and William Edward Parry [1]
My grandmother, Florence Ethel Parry (maiden name Tamplin) came to Canada in 1946 on the Letitia. She was married to my Grandfather, William Edward Parry, who was with the Canadian army but was a British citizen from Liverpool. He had been living in Canada when the war broke out. William met Florence while recovering from a war injury. I think she volunteered with the Red Cross and he was one of the wounded soldiers that she had cared for. Florence also came from Surrey and lived on Croft Lane until sh

10. Canada Post Commemorative Envelope [1]
Hi all Canadian War Brides and other interested persons! You will be happy to know that Canada Post is issuing a commemorative envelope in honour of the Canadian War Brides on May 8, 2005. I worked on the project and have reviewed the mock ups . I can confirm that the envelope is beautiful. The front of the envelope contains original archival photographs of two Canadian War Brides, Olive Cochrane (mother of sister war bride lister Michelle Rusk), and war bride Jean Spear of Ottawa, Ontario.

Hello Susan My mother, Kathleen Easton (nee Hill) came over on the ship Letitia in April, 1946. She was pregnant with me at the time and I was born in August. She was a search light operator in the British army and was from northern England. You are the first person I have heard from regarding the same ship. Where are you located? I am in Brampton, ON. I would guess we would be about the same age. I have a postcard of the ship in a family album. My mother wanted to name Letitia but my fat

My mother came to Canada as a war bride. It was about March of 1946. The ship was the Letitia departing from Brighton I think. Her name was Barbara Gunderson (maiden name was Sebire) and she was born and raised in Surrey Croydon. I'm interested in any info that you can offer.

Hello Denise, I know that you sent this message to the war brides mailing list a long time ago, but I was wondering if you ever found that pamphlet you were looking for.

A lesson in English eating !! ---------- Forwarded Message ---------- People have asked............... ~~~ What are faggots? ~~~ Pork Faggots are a meatball, which is made up basically from Pork liver and onion. Mr Brains faggots add a few more things such as rusks, wheat flour etc, and soak them in a rich west country sauce, before freezing them for your convenience. ~~~ How do you cook them? ~~~ For best results you should cook from frozen, at the following temperatures and times: 230*c/ 450*f/Gas Ma

23. [WarBrides] How to buy a Canada Post Commemorative Envelope [1]
Hi, I've just got off the phone with Canada Post's philatelic center in Antigonish, Nova Scotia. Wouldn't you know it, the woman who answered the phone knows all about the war brides!! You can indeed order the commemorative envelope at any time by phone or mail. They are $2.50 CDN plus tax and the product number is #341714. Just remember, they're only officially being "launched" on May 8, which is a Sunday, so even if you order it before then, it won't be distributed any time before May 8 I would ima

Hello, My name is Alison Pringle. I live in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. I have just joined this mailing list. I am searching for ANY information anyone may have about my nana. In the last few months I have been very curious to find out more about her and my papa. I wish I would have had more interest in the past when they were still alive. My nana came to Canada from England, I think she grew up in Yorkshire but am not certain. Her maiden name was Alice Maude Taylor (I think that was her middle name)
25. Re: [WarBrides] Canada Post Commemorative Envelope [1]
Hi Linda et al. Although I would like to take the credit for initiating the Commemorative envelope, I cannot. Yes, I was involved in trying to get a war bride stamp a couple of years ago, but we had no idea that our efforts had resulted in a commemorative envelope (not a stamp). So I was as surprised as the next person when I was contacted by Canada Post in September asking me to participate in the commemorative envelope project. I worked as the subject matter expert / consultant, gathering images f
