Notes:
The present diarist is probably Nancy Anna Sill (1909-1982). She notes her birthday in a diary entry for August 9, 1940, with "Nancianna, born 1909." The England & Wales, Civil Registration Death Index, 1916-2007, records the death of Nancy Anna Sill (of Kendal) in 1982. The 1939 England and Wales Register lists a Nancy A Sill (born August 9, 1909) as a poulty farm heavy worker at Egham, Surrey.
