Ruby Risbridger


Daughter of William Risbridger and Lilian Agnes Flowers. .

Born in Elephant & Castle, London in 1927, the seventeenth year of the reign of King George V, and died aged eighty-seven in Lewisham Hospital – buried Chatham Cemetery in the sixty-third year of the reign of Queen Elizabeth II  She has 2 direct descendants in the family.


During the second World War, Ruby was evacuated to Cornwall, along with many other London children. When she returned at the tail end of the war, the Germans were still dropping bombs on London, and it was while she was working in the Co-op at Belvedere that she narrowly escaped death. A bomb had dropped nearby and the blast shattered the windows above where she had been standing only minutes
