Constance Sharpe
(Harold wife) traveled alone out to India (1910) to marry Harold in Calcutta.
A family joke arose as Eric was born 9 months later and she was teased as to whether
Harold or the Ships Captain was the father. In about 1915 she brought the family home,
Eric, Mary and Beryl and left Eric and Mary in the care of Aunts Daisy and Margaret so
they could be schooled in England and safe during the war. She returned to India with
Beryl and Norman was born later. After the war in 1919 /1920 she returned to the UK and
rented a house in Redhill and later bought a house in Guilford, near Upper Bridge Road Station.
MC Travers drove to Beryl Travers (nee Newby) to Guilford in early 2007 and they identified the
house. Harold returned in about 1927 and they bought a house in Sutton (Holland road Beryl thinks).
Interred with Harold as above.
