Biographical Details: | |
Stella Taylor comes from one of the families whose members worked for the Sopwith/Hawker companies down the generations. Her mother’s eldest brother was on of the first Sopwith Aviation carpenters and her cousin – Colin Bedford – was working at Richmond Road when it closed in 1992. She herself worked for the company between 1941 and 1945 where – based in the Drawing Office – she operated the filing for all the technical drawings and committed much of the index system to memory. | |
