DOES anyone know anything about Mabel Rebekah Bishop, nee Tebbutt? She was born in 1882 and brought up in in Upper Dagnall Street, St Albans, and died in 1977. Late in life she had a friend who wrote to her from 5 Beech Road but according to her family this address no longer exists. What happened to this house and the family who used to live there? She told her grandchildren about playing in a pond at the silk mill by the Cathedral, and remembered catching "soldiers and sailors". What were these minnows and newts perhaps?
