Informtion about Nigel Pelly
Hi Mandy. I've just come across your message, and wonder if you are still seeking information about your grandfather. My late father, Patrick Macrory, was a fellow pupil of Nigel Pelly at Mourne Grange Preparatory School in County Down c 1920, and wrote about him rather amusingly in an unpublished chapter of his memoirs. My grandparents were friends of Nigel's parents (the connection was through the Royal Inniskilling Fusiliers) and it was on Rosa Pelly's recommendation that my father was sent to Mourne Grange. The information I have relates solely to your grandfather as an 11-year-old schoolboy, and not to his subsequent career. Do let me know if you're interested.
