PEOPLE AT WITTON CHAPEL (1939 - 1945).
The War Years (1939-1945) were not an easy time for the
chapel, affecting the numbers attending some of the meetings. It was a time
of great blessing, however, for a number of service men and women stationed
in the area attended the services.
Mr. Jackson's granddaughter, Jennifer Mortishire (nee Berry)
remembers what wonderful people they were and counts herself privileged
to have been at the Chapel in those years.

by one of the servicemen, Mr. Hargreaves. The Chapel appreciated the servicemen
but it is clear that they also appreciated the chapel! |
