I should clarify that Gloucester was lucky during the war and wasn’t as heavily bombed as other close towns. My mom lived in the country a fee miles from the city proper. My mom’s family had German POW helpers who helped with work around the estate lived on. The family were in service of the estate.

My mom tells a story of a Nazi bomb hitting in front of my grandmother’s car. The factory where my grandfather worked was bombed. The town was bombed by Nazi bombers who would dump any remains payloads after doing bombing runs. My mother’s accent is my fondest childhood memory.

Glevum is the Roman name for Gloucester, which started as a Roman fort and town from shortly after the Roman invasion in 48 a.d.. It was hit by the Antonine plague and the Bubonic plague. My aunt used to clean the tombs of kings and princes in the cathedral.
