Ambrose Edward was brought up by his father and 'step-mother'
- not sure if they married - and he said his step-mother was very
cruel to him, made his life as a child a misery, and sadly he developed
a stutter which he retained for the rest of his life and he retained a
faulty bladder! (AH)

Annie

joined the Navy at age 14 was a petty officer during WW2. He ended up as a skipper for British

Ambrose had a rotten end, it started by him
falling and breaking his hip round about 1972. He had something
wrong with a toe which due to neglect of family doctor, turned into
gangrene - which meant he had a leg amputated. About a year after
that, he had a massive stroke which left him wheelchair bound and unable
to speak. We know, unfortunately, that he suffered a lot of pain
and was in Milton Regis hospital for about 2 years before he eventually
died - so in total had about 5 really tough years at the end of his
life. (AH) |
