Name: Victoria Elizabeth Dawes Hicks

Died at: 25 Magdalen Road, St Leonards
Additional Information: Victoria Hicks, aged 75, died when an lone bomber dropped 9 high explosive bombs on Magdalen Road and other parts of St Leonards. One other person was killed in the raid and 16 others seriously wounded.
I was unable to locate Victoria’s grave marker in the main area of WW2 war graves, so he is likely buried else where on site. I will look to find it when I revisit Hastings Cemetery.
