January 1940 - England - Middlesex - Fox Photos Ltd.

The Daily Mail" told yesterday the story of these two little girls, "Peggy" and "Molly" (their real names are Francesca and Manuela) -- the girls who must go back to Spain. Peggy and Molly were pictured yesterday at Ruislip, Middlesex, where they live with Mr. and Mrs. Leonard Mayers, who adopted them as Basque refugees from war-torn Spain three years ago. Their father and mother were thought to have been killed. They went to an English school, forgot the Civil War, -- and Spain. Now the parents have written claiming them. So Peggy and Molly are going back to Spain -- Francesca and Manuela once again.
