Thanks for your reply Sheila. I've been able to find heaps of info on the bombings of major cities but very little about evacuations.....frustrating. Deb:) |

Would people have been evacuated to Wales during WW2? I've just been googling and found out that children and pregnant women were evacuated from southern counties to safer places in the north.....The reason I ask is that I believe a relative of mine may have been evacuated from Warwickshire and ended up in north Wales via Liverpool/Manchester.......Deb:) |

I think they were just evacuated to anywhere that could take them. I had family in London that were sent a few miles up the road to Buckinghamshire. Sheila |
