'Lou' Llewellyn married in 1939 and moved to Rochester where her husband Cyril worked on the Short's Empire flying boat. In 1941 they were amongst the first Short's employees to move to Windermere as part of the feasibility study for the factory. When the houses were complete, they moved into 24 Beck Island Road, where Lou worked as a riveter's dolly at the factory for a year, and later worked in the canteen at Calgarth Primary School.
