Minnie Holmes
Women's Land Army
from:Blacksmith's Shop, Barmston, East Yorkshire
My great aunt, Minnie Holmes, served in the Women's Land Army during WW2. I believe she was based somewhere in Lincolnshire. She came from a family of blacksmiths - her father and his 8 brothers worked all over the East Riding.
Unfortunately, this information only came to light after her death, so that's all I know.
I would be very interested to hear from anyone who remembers her or can give me any further information.
