RE. FREDA WILLIAMS -THE FAN DANCER!!!! BORN C.1920 FROM ?DORSET. I BELIEVE SHE WAS A FAN DANCER! QUITE RISQUE! SHE HAD SISTERS CALLED ANN AND BERTHA. HER MOTHER WAS CALLED ADA (WHO HAD AN OLDER HALF SISTER CALLED FLORENCE - MY GREAT GRANDMOTHER) I BELIEVE THEY CAME FROM DORSET, POSSIBLY BLANDFORD. FREDA'S GRANDMOTHER WAS CALLED ALBERTA AND SHE WAS POSS A COOK IN A LARGE HOUSE BELONGING TO A SEA CAPTAIN. ALBERTA BECAME PREGNANT BY HER EMPLOYER(SO WE BELIEVE) BEFORE MARRYING MR ?WILLIAMS , FATHER OF ANN, BERTHA AND FREDA "THE FAN DANCER!" IF ANY OF THESE SISTERS ARE ALIVE I WOULD LOVE TO ASK THEM OF ANY MEMORIES THEY MAY HAVE OF THEIR AUNT.
