evacuees 1939
We had an evacuee with us on Barnfield Street from September 1939. His name was Bernard, he was from Salford and attended St. Anne's RC school in Cobham Road.
I was told much later that a school was evacuated from Salford, along with teachers, and some, maybe all, of the children were sent to Accrington. Does anyone have any information about this, or how homes were chosen for the evacuees, or how long they stayed?
I've been told that neighbours on the street also had evacuees.
