Inscription
Treasured Memories of our beloved sister IVY HULL died Dec 18th 1947 age 49 years
She never faith to do her best.
Her heart was always tender
She toiled for those she loved so well
Then left us to remember.
Also her brother REGINALD HULL died July 23 1964 age 60 years.
Ivy Hull (11 December 1898 – 18 December 1947)
Ivy was the daughter of James and (Sarah) Alice (née Pope) and grew up at 27 Hemingford Road (1911) and then at 139 Ross Street (at least 1930 onwards). Her father was a stonemason and in 1939 she was living with her father and sister Winifred at Ross Street. She was documented as being a housemaid at Girton College at that time. Ivy was still living at Ross Street in 1947, but her place of death was given as the ‘River Granta’ on probate records, suggesting she drowned.
Reginald Hull (22 May 1904 – 23 July 1964)
Reginald was the only son of James and Alice Hull. He worked as a carpenter and in 1939 was lodging at 78 Cam Causeway. He later lived at 139 Ross Street, but died at the Fulbourn Hospital aged 60 years old.
