  [S69] Other Researchers - Sheila Reynolds. Jessie married Thomas Moore - they had one baby but he was still-born. When his mother died, their nephew, Sheila's father, came to live with Jessie and Tom in Church Lane, Bocking. He had a very happy childhood despite the early trauma. Jessie and Tom treated him as a son and, when my sister and I appeared on the scene, Jessie and Tom were like grandparents to us. In fact, when my sister was due to be born in 1954, I was sent to stay with them in Bocking for a month and celebrated my fourth birthday there. Not the sort of thing usually done today, but I thoroughly enjoyed myself, and the stay constitutes my earliest clear memory. I remained close to Jessie and her older sister Florrie right up to their deaths, in turn taking my two sons on regular visits. They were kind and gentle people, and had soft East Anglian accents, slightly sing-song, with drawn out vowels. When I returned home in 1954 I was apparently speaking in the same way, and prefacing every comment with ?I reckon . . ? in the Bocking fashion! [come to think of it, I still say ?I reckon . . ? rather more than most people, but no longer with the accent]
