My father's great grandfather Ogilvy worked in the shipyards as a6 caulker and cutter working with red hot steel and only having seconds to fit. He was in the Militia and volunteered to go to Ypres where he was sadly killed. He was a Lance Corporal and was billeted in a French Alms house. He was hit with a coal box bomb which exploded and spat out its deadly contents. My grandfather was a miner in Sunderland before moving to Coventry in 1942 where he helped the war effort at Roots Shadow Factory building aeroplanes. He then trained as a metal polisher. He was a Christian and also a Preacher. My parents eloped in order to get married in London. I remain extremely proud of their actions. Sadly life did take an enormous swerve when our dad died so suddenly. I can't comprehend entirely how much Mum must have struggled after our dad died. Yet we are all here (at home and abroad) to carry forward our lives because of their courage God Bless you both.xx
