Letter to Jean Davidson, Jack Davidson's wife, from Mary Taylor. (2 pages)Context
It is thought that Mary Taylor was Alexander Munro Taylor's mother, as a letter written in 1944 by Jean Davidson is addressed to Mr and Mrs Taylor.
'Alex' was one of the two gunners on the Hoos crew. This grief-stricken letter tells Jean Davidson that Mary Taylor has received information that "Alex is Presumed Killed".
The letter is undated but probably was sent in early August 1943.
