1940's Guernsey Evacuee Mother's Online Diary
To engage with history researchers, and with the general public, I decided yesterday to use my hundreds of interviews with Guernsey child and adult WW2 evacuees to create an online diary for an Evacuated Guernsey Mother in June 1940 I will update it several times a week, for the rest of this year, on my research blog & website, to demonstrate some of the experiences the 17,000 children and adults went through from June 1940 as they were evacuated to England. The first entry is below: Gillian Mawson My diary - 9 June 1940: - I am Mrs Pamela Le Tissier and last night my family and I in Guernsey could clearly hear the guns on the French coast. My husband fears the Nazis will invade Guernsey, but I am not so sure, there is confusion all around. You can follow this diary throughout this year, at: http://guernseyevacuees.wordpress.com/diary-of-an-evacuee-jun-1940/ EMAIL gillianmawson@btinternet.com
