Phyllis Lorton at Hertford 1925-1934

Post by Wendy Killner »

Phyllis Lorton ( Hertford 1925-1933/34) died from Rheumatic disease, aged 15 while a pupil there. Does anyone have any information about her or her friends or how to find her records of achievement etc. Her brother Geoff is now over 80 and house bound; he would love to find out more details about his elder sister. If you have any information please contact me on 01403 27665 or email : administrator@chassociation.org. Wendy Killner

"Blue Skirts into Blue Stockings" will be no help. Louie Angus gives her dates at Hertford as 1916-1925.

I've been in touch with Wendy. There's something funny about the dates - she can't have been 15 if she joined the school in 1925 and died in 1934.
We are looking into the records to see if we can identify who she was and what the dates really were. The only additional information to hand at the moment is that she was in 2's.
