Georgina "Ena" Oliver
Womens Land Army Watford, Herts
from:Durham
My Mum served in the land army around Watford in the Bedmond area, she often told us stores of how she and her friends visited injured Soldiers at Leavesden Hospital where she met my Dad who was in the Canadian 12th Manitoba Dragoons and was injured in France and sent to Leavesden Hospital. She went to Canada on her own on the Lucitania and Dad followed. My sister was born in Canada but Mum wanted to come back home to England and they settled back in Watford, celebrating their 50th wedding anniversary almost in the same spot where they met during the war in my house which was built on the grounds of the old hospital. Mum unfortunately died in 2006.
