My Mother's Cousin

This is Olive (Earp), holding her nephew, Roger. It looks like post-war pre-fab houses in the background, created for victims of bombing. Roger's mother, Ivy, had her house in London bombed during the war. She was deeply affected by the terror of that and I believe she had a sort of breakdown based on information given to me by Roger - who now lives in Canada. Roger was sent to live with his Aunt Olive until Ivy recovered.
