| Jane Carpenter writes... "My father, Oliver John Rust de Boer, was born in December 1920 and was at Stationers but am not sure of the years. I do know that he was in the Stationers Cadet Corps from 1932-1937. Sadly he died in 1983 following a fire. Therefore we have no photographs of him for his grandchildren who never met him. I have recently obtained his war records and am trying to piece together his life. I am writing to ask if anyone remembers him and if anyone had any photographs of him or do class photos exist?" | ||||||||||
| Several members of the Stanbury family have emailed us and are... " - trying to find out as much information as possible about The Stationers' Boys School as I believe that both my father, Charles Millar Salmond and my uncle, Peter Stanbury Salmond attended the school but left in 1925 to move to Glasgow where their father, Thomas Millar Salmond took up another post. My father died when I was a teenager and my uncle was killed in WW2. I was born shortly after he was killed and inherited his name. As a family, the war was never discussed but as a result, we are really ignorant on numerous aspects of their lives..." etc. | ||||||||||

The Hicklenton Cup,. Some time ago Tony asked for information about a silver cup that had been presented to the OSA by Sarah Scuppage, a lady who had moved into a house in Cobham to find it there when she moved in. Out of the blue he heard from one of Howard HIcklenton's descendants, with further interesting details of the history of this cup. |
