My fiancée is preparing to write a fiction story about two girls who are evacuated to the US from England during World War II. Though she's familiar enough with the period to do the research herself, it would be really useful if we could put her in touch with someone who has lived a similar scenario.
Given the significant UK contingent here, I'm wondering if any of you might have older relatives or friends who came to the US around that time? Preferably as children or young adults, but any British perspective on the US of the early 1940s would be useful.
Thanks so much!
