PARENT 10. William Henry Johnson 1849
GLADYS MORTON JOHNSON, twin of Lorna,was born in Bowden, Cheshire in1880 (3rd qtr Altrincham). She was a superb pianist and had been invited to join the famous Halle Symphony but the war intervened and Gladys , like her twin, went into service as a VAD nurse (Voluntary Aide Detachment). After the war, when Gladys' younger sister, Enid, died prematurely as a result of measles, aged 42 and her husband had also died as a result of mustard gas poisoning during the war, leaving 5 orphaned children, aged 2 - 18 years, Gladys stepped into the breach and raised her sisters children.
