Earlier this year we invited Kingston residents to submit stories that had been handed down to them of family members’ experiences of World War 2.. As the invitation said ‘These experiences don’t have to have any direct connection to Kingston.. the link will be that they are stories known to people living in our community now..‘
We have created a new page on this site called ‘Research Projects’, where you can find the stories received so far. We hope that this page will also be where future local history research projects appear.
Carol Beard, who conceived this project, intends that these stories will be made available in a printed collection at some point in the future. In the meantime we would urge villagers to submit their stories to Carol if they haven’t already done so.
