Johnsons of Brough Church House
Church House Brough East Yorkshire |
Michael and Lizzie Johnson nee Kenningham |
My Aunty Alice Bruce and my Father Harold Gower Bruce spent their childhood holidays in Brough /Brantingham with Aunty Lizzie and Uncle Michael. Aunty Alice said they were really lovely times, maybe without parents. When Measles was around they were sent to Brough so they would not catch it from other children . Some lovely though poor pictures of Aunty Alice playing as small girl here in about 1910
