Wife of Andre Kella.

Barbara Anslow writes:

I knew Mrs Kella, she must be the Aunt of Sheila Haynes about whose wedding there was much corresponence on the camp website recently. Didn't know her very well.

The Kellas are listed in Greg Leck's camp list as having come to Stanley on 21st Jan. 1942 (when a great many of us also arrived); in confirmation, they are also listed on the very first Stanley list smuggled out of camp early on.

Hello Barbara,

Yes, Ethel Kella was the Aunt of Sheila Haynes, and my great Aunt.  At the moment I do not know any details of Ethel and Andre's time in Hong Kong or Stanley.

Ethel passed away on 5 Feb 1970.

Kind regards,

Judy
