Betty Vera Rusby
Posted: Sun Nov 09, 2008 5:05 pm
My Mum, Betty Vera Rusby, lived in Bures during the war having been sent up from London to work in the land army and I am now in possession of the land army badge awarded to Mum although sadly she died just prior to this arriving in the post. I have already been lucky to establish where Mum lived during her time in Bures which was in Station Hill but am now trying to find the farm where she actually worked and understand it could possibly have been Baker's Hall Farm. I am not sure as to the exact dates Mum was working in Bures but if anyone would have any more information as to the farm or anything relating to Betty Rusby I would be so pleased to hear from you. I am planning a trip next year to the area to trace as much about Mum's stay there as I can as I know just how much she loved the area and I just wish we had managed to get her back to see it once again for herself but now I must continue this for myself. I hope someone may be able to help me. Thank You. Sue Huxford
