Mine were probably 1890s, or late 1880s. One GM told me she could remember Queen Victoria dying when she was 6. The church bells were tolling and her father said in a very sombre voice, ‘The Queen is dead!’ - and my granny thought the world must be coming to an end if the Queen was dead!
My parents were born in 1916 and 1918!
