*** FAMILY HISTORY
***
|
|
Janet Renwick ALLAN was the 2nd child of
Andrew ALLAN and Agnes LYAL. Born in Timaru, she
went with her mother and younger brother to
Scotland in 1912 after the father Andrew Allan
died. She wrote to Robert French WRIGHT, a boy some
5 years older than the then 16 year old. It is said
that these two wrote to each other, and Janet's
mother opened and read her letters. When Janet
returned to New Zealand, she married Robert
FRENCH-WRIGHT, having four children. The 2nd son
(Lyal) died in an air operation over Greece in
World War II. The other three sons all married and
had children.
