First Memory

These are the memoirs of Kathleen Lamond (nee Scott) who was born in Moore, Cheshire on 26th January 1893, the daughter of George Hall Scott, an eminent engineer, and his wife Margaret(nee Wilkinson). Kathleen was the sister of George Herbert Scott, the Airship pioneer who captained the R.34 and died on R.101. This account of her life covers the period from 1896, aged 3, to her marriage in 1922 to Douglas Lamond. Her writing style is easy and the entire story is a touching recollection of middle class English life in a bygone age.
