• Photos » Slide Show		Beechfield House Hotel The pub venture in Cornwall was I believe the Beechfield House Hotel at Yelverton on Dartmoor. I have visited the area a few times and made some enquiries to senior residents of the village, some of whom had a few memories of the old hotel but the site has long been re-developed. A ´photo / postcard of the original house is attached as well as…

By this stage i.e Tregantle Fort comes into the story in 1920 according to MoD archive information - a good few years had passed since the relationship with Kathleen had started,…

  [S114] Other Researchers - Peter Worrall. The difference between a seasoned AEW and a shy young lady is charmingly obvious in the ´photo attached. Taken I think on the sports field at Tregantle Fort probably in the early ´20´s. No doubt they had journeyed there in AEW´s car a ´photo of which is also attached. [S114] Other Researchers - Peter Worrall. I cannot see see that AEW ever did leave Kathleen, as we understood from Dad and our family talk that he - AEW that is - & Kathleen had been parents in the normal way. Even though we never had the opportunity to meet AEW, we did get to see Kathleen (Nanna Worrall to us as children) when we were very young and Dad used to talk a good deal about his times at home in Barnes with his Mum & Dad - although he well knew that something was going on elsewhere with Minnie and the other side of the family and often talked about the various discussion & debates that went on. Our Dad Peter, of course being only 17 when AEW died. NB. later on when Dad bought the house (Pixies Folly) at Mortimer Common in the autumn of 1959, his idea was to make a granny flat for Nanna Worrall / Kathleen. Sadly she never got to live in it as she died that Christmas before her lodging was ready. Our Dad, Peter was indeed in the RAF in WW2 (Bomber Command) and afterwards went into civil aviation with British South American Airways & later BOAC. He took part in the Berlin Airlift and afterwards was actively involved in the start of jet age travel flying the first Comet aircraft. Later on the glorious VC 10 and had a terrific flying career ending in retirement in June 1977. [S114] Other Researchers - Peter Worrall. His Army career. Looking back to the beginning of his career - when AEW enlisted in the KOSB´s at Berwick in April of 1897 - he was only 15 and obviously lied about his age - as did many - to get into the army. That he was admitted at such a young age must have been either due to him being a mature looking young lad or that the recruiting sergeant was rather lenient that day (´OK son, you´ll do....' ) and with the Boer War boiling up in the background and the need for troops, there may have been shall we say, a certain relaxing of the regulations... Thus after his initial training and formation in the KOSB´s, when he embarked for the Cape and the Boer War in January 1900 he was just 18.
