At Sep 1939, Maud and the 2 children and Maud's mother Frances Emerson were with Maud's sister Helen Dibble in Taunton, but it is not known whether that was a short visit or a longer stay.
At the same time, Ernest Redding remained at his Holland Grove home with his wife's uncle George Emerson. George had lived at Brixton Road with his brother Thomas Emerson and his wife Frances. Perhaps George moved to Holland Grove after his brother's death in 1937, or perhaps he was only temporarily visiting Holland Grove in 1939 while Frances and Maud were visiting Taunton as above.7,8,9,10
