About the author Jean Collins
Born in South London, Jean grew up there during the war. On leaving school at 17 she worked as a secretary/PA in various offices in London’s West End. During this time she married an architect, living first in Hampstead, then Hemel Hempstead where daughter Madeleine was born, she later moved to Kent where her husband set up an architect’s practice and Fraser, their son, was born.
After her children had left home, she ran a country house hotel in Snowdonia for three years, then moved to Chester. Finally Jean retired to North Lincolnshire where she is now an active member of various local organisations. She is keenly interested in the history of the area in which she has now settled and it is from this fascination that her book about South Kelsey in Lincolnshire has grown.
