Marjorie Verney (1902-1971)

Birth: 30 Oct 1902, 10 Northfield Cottages, Pinner Green, Pinner
Death: 1971, Eastbourne, Sussex
Father: (Walter James) Ernest VERNEY (?-?)
Mother: Ellen BURTON
Spouse: George Ernest VERNON

Children:
Alison Marjorie Ellen VERNON (1925-2006)
Colin George VERNON (1928)

Birth Certificate has her down as Marjorie Minnie Varney, not Verney

Notes:
I recall ‘Nanna’, as she was known, only vaguely, but do have a sense of a rather repressed, very controlled person. Certainly the impression that Alison (her daughter) gave of her mother was that she was quite strict and undemonstrative.

Geoff Verney, her nephew, recalls Marjorie with great affection as a caring person, and had many happy stays with her and George in Eastbourne when he was a small boy. George would take him on the buses where he worked and, being a very principled man, would insist on being honest and paying his fare in full.
