My Mothers family,the Mundays,all born in Lydney,between 1923-1930,were hit hard by the polio epidemic,in the 1930s,her younger brother was the First ever person to use the 'new'Iron Lung,and it was printed in the newspapers,I dont know if he was in a Bristol or Gloucester Hospital,? I have tried many routes and got nowhere,So I cannot go any further in finding out,what happened to him,Hope someone out there remembers the Mundays by name,as that would be great,I would like to hear from them Please Carol Mellors,
