Update

It is really fascinating doing family history research on Ursula Bethell's mother's father's side of the family - have just discovered her Uncle John Gascoigne Lillie and family lived in Devon, which would explain her frequent trips there!

And John's son, Denis Gascoigne Lillie, was on the ill-fated expedition with Sir Robert Falcon Scott to the Antarctic 1910-1912 - so Ursula was acquainted with at least two men on that expedition (the other being her friend Oriana Wilson's husband.)
