Hello everyone, I'm in America and wondering if anyone from Canning Town could help me. My nan's sister, Alice Lashmar, was 89 in 2009, and was photographed at the beginning of a demolition for a regeneration project. I have tried whitepages and found no information. I am hoping she is still alive as I would like to talk to her. Does anyone know her, seems she must be well known as she also took part in Howard Bloch's "Canning Town Voices" project.?

I appreciate any help anyone can give me

Thanks in advance

Rose:)
