Baginton Fields hostel, Coventry

This is my sister Barbara Keates and I at the Baginton Fields hostel in Coventry.  This was the destination for many repatriated families arriving on the Empress of Australia.

In my book, Lost in the Battle for Hong Kong,  on Page 60, I describe my encounter with  Dorothy and Barbara Keates. I wonder if this is the same Barbara in this photo? I was about 8 years old at the time.

The encounter took place in the summer of 1940 or 1941, before the war and subsequent Stanley Camp. A brother was born in Stanley Camp named Robert: is this the same Robert Anthony Keates?
