Known as Bessie

She was the first person in Scotland to repair runs on ladies silkstockings by machine. She worked for Jenners Department Store inEdinburgh. When nylon stockings were introduced, she also repaired theseuntil she became "redundant" when nylon stockings were more available andcheaper. She reverted to the original job that she had done straight fromschool which was to be a knitwear finisher and examiner for Munrospun (awell respected knitwear manufacturer in Edinburgh).

Bessie and her sister Ina were for many years "seaside landladies". FromEdwardian days to the 1950s Portobello, a suburb of Edinburgh, was a verypopular beach resort for family holidays. Each summer their houses werefilled with lodgers from all over Scotland and the North of England.During the "season" everyone else had to double up in rooms and it wasnot unknown for the family to sleep 4 in a bed to free up rooms for thepaid guests. All the family had to help with chores - washing dishes,cleaning, changing beds. There could be up to 20 people in the house atany one time - all this and only one toilet (not even a bath).

3619 [Easton July 2005.FTW]

Known as Nan.

Worked as a bookbinder, but her passion was dance.

Nan ran a dancing school in Portobello called the Nan Easton School ofDancing. She taught tap and ballet dancing. All the family (certainlyall the females) attended the dancing school classes. It was an extremelypopular and well know dancing school and put on a wonderful annualconcert which ran for 3 evenings in Portobello Town Hall. It was always asell out. In addition to the family dancing in the concert all familymembers were involved in one way or another (scenery, lighting,music,taking tickets at the door, opening the curtains, selling programmes,etc.) The biggest job by far leading up to event was the costume making.Her sister Nellie Easton and sister-in-law Betty Easton (Elizabeth AnnSmith - widow of Jim Easton) spent weeks making tutus and other costumesand their homes were filled with costumes, pieces of material and threadseverywhere with the sewing machine permanently on the kitchen table.

Nan Easton (although we didn't realise it then) was very innovative inher dance routines. Soon after it had been invented she used ultra violetlight onto costumes to make skeletons. The lasting memory of all thefamily is that of skeletons dancing on stage - all the lights were out -no one had ever seen anything like this before and didn't know how it wasdone. I suppose many of the children in the audience may have hadnightmares! (Source: Neices Muriel Smart Bell and Christine Peace)
