Effie Kathleen Hallam 1894-1984

Nurse & School matron

Maryl was also interested to know (if possible) how a relative on her Mum's side who she and her brothers called Auntie Effie fits in.  When she was a child ' she and her mother occasionally visited her, an elderly lady, for the day in Cirencester. There was no mention of a husband or children . She had in her mind that she was related to her mother through her grandfather (Edward Hugo Price).  Maybe she was his niece? I wondered if Effie was the daughter of one of the siblings of her mother's grandfather Edward Hugo Price.

1939 Register Effue K Hallam, born 31/1/1894, was a School matron at Weymouth College Dorchester Road, Weymouth. This is how and when Meryl's mother, Marjoris Price, 1927, would have known her, as she lived with Effie's uncle, Edward Hugo Price, from 1939 to ,probably, 1945 at least

A crossed out address in the address book was .68 Mount Pleasant Avenue Radipole, Weymouth : perhaps this was where she spent her early retirement years ? Her uncle, Edward Hugo Price, died in 1955
