My Mother Annie Rose nee Harper 1922-2019 died in Murwillumbah NSW
Australia aged care home at Age 97. She emigrated to Australia in 1952
with Husband Norman and 3 children Colin Patricia and Norma. Tim was born
in Australia.
They did well in Sydney and retired to the NSW/Queensland border town of
Murwillumbah. Norma and Tim still live there.

May she rest in peace.One (small) claim to fame - I was Queen of the Sea in 1933 when I was in
Kyleshill School. One year, visiting Saltcoats, I called into the Museum
and to my amazement and delight found a whole feature about my 'reign' with
photographs, robe and crown. When I told them who I was they insisted I
have a photo taken, in full regalia.....
Looking forward to continuing to find pleasant reminders of my hometown.
