A cache of First World War love letters found in a charity shop is set to be reunited with the family of the woman who received them more than 100 years ago.
The Sue Ryder charity launched a campaign on Monday to find the family of Mary Fortune after letters to her from her husband George, in the Durham Light Infantry, were found in one of their stores in Fulwell, Sunderland.
Now they are set to be returned to David Bambrough, who came forward to identify himself as the great-grandson of Mary’s brother after being alerted to the letters via “random people” on the genealogy website Ancestry.
