The lady who lived here was married, she was Eileen Mary Fairlamb - I have checked marriages etc and her maiden name was Bishop. I have checked the births and she was born Bishop so she hasnt married previous. The area ofthe letters is Bristol and London. The partner was an Argentinian soldier who was called back to his country to fight in the War?

Member Since: March 2006 Posts: 77 Send Message	After doing some alterations I have come across a letter in the original envelope dated 1943. The letter is addressed to an Eileen Sheen, address will be disclosed upon more info req. This is a war love letter, some of it in Spanish, French and English. I would like to pass this onto someone who is researching their tree as it is an invaluable piece which could never be replaced. Please email me if you think this letter belongs to your tree. Thanks Amanda
