This ration book is from 1952-1953.

Originally Robert Hagley (Barbara鈥檚 father) was from Kingston upon Thames but by 1952 the family (father Robert, mother Margaret and daughter Barbara) had moved to Beverley, East Riding of Yorkshire.

Barbara would have been about six years old at that time and when her father died in 1999, she found this and some other ration books in his estate.

TG Ringrose (Beverley Tourist Information Centre now)
34 Butcher Row
Beverley

Co-Operative Society Limited (still a grocery shop now)
