My wife and I actually went to the church at Wood Norton yesterday. It was open for private worship so we were able to go inside. We saw Charles Burton Lipscomb’s name on the list of incumbents on the wall. We also saw the rectory, now privately owned, where he and his wife lived. Wood Norton is still a very remote village today so the journey to Market Deeping in 1912 must have been something of an adventure.
I have since found out that the gardener at the rectory, Alfred Nunn, married the recipient of my postcard, the cook Emma Lavinia Rutland, and they had three sons.
