Personal Stories
Great Grandaugther
Thomas Layton was my great grandfather, i just recently got into my family history and found out his wife also my great grandmother served as a nurse in WW2. Another interesting fact which is really random, his father had a gas station built in Tasmania Sandy bay! Now its called and owned by Bob and Tom, anyway the more things you know. :)
