MacKenzie, Norman to Julia Briggs, 1977-02-10

"Dear Mrs Briggs, Most trails on the Blands run into the sand. Unfortunately for you Mrs Paul Bland (the last survivor) lived at Buxted, near here, and died last year. She was never able to produce any papers, and indeed I believe there was a kind of holocaust at the beginning of the war when her husband died. I think she sold some papers in America and was ashamed to tell me. She claimed that there were still some papers down at her brother's house at Dymchurch and was always promising to go with me and look but was never well enough to do so..."
