From early November 1942 onwards, R E Jones mentions her almost every day in his diary. Sometimes he simply notes "GX" or "GXX", other times he adds a few words "With Gxx after 8PM. Quarry."

On 25th December 1942, he wrote:

"Had G to supper. Nativity Play at St Stephens. Quarry GX. Lovely Xmas considering conditions."

But just the next day things take a turn for the worse:

"Not such a good day. G got card from hubby. Spoke of breaking up."
