She may have been part of the Lady Instructors Signals Company; she was a woman of many talents. In addition to single-handedly raising two sons, carrying out major construction work on her two-story home and writing poetry in her "spare time", she went on to hold administrative positions with railway and insurance firms, and at the age of 41 enrolled in and completed a Woman's Machine Shop course. She passed away at the age of 48.

Wow !! Muriel was an amazing "gal" for sure Kathryn! & a real shame she died so young.

Thank you for relating her story & pleased that you got the RPPC from ebay.
That is where I spotted it & started this topic.
