Turner and Eliel Hinojosa, Jr.  \nIntroduction  \nNearly fifty years after the end of World War II, Professor O.L. Davis began research related to school aged children evacuee education in England. His interest in curriculum history along with time spent living in England spurred his curiosity. In order to collect information, Davis let space in no less than eight publications. Saga Magazine, the Wirral Globe, the Bristol Evening Post, the East Anglian Daily Times, Home and Country Magazine, the 1940 Association Newsletter, The Christchurch Press, and the Jewish Chronicle. All elicited experiences from student and teacher evacuees from mainland England. Davis also reached beyond mainland England and into parts of the British Commonwealth. His goal was to broadcast his query to an audience whose experiences extended back almost half a century; his purpose was to engage in dialogue that uncovered schooling experiences during evacuations in England between 1939 and 1945.  \nWhile the advertisement was simple, it yielded significant correspondence from both students and teachers, whose individual stories of education and schooling during evacuation amass a collection of several hundred folders. An example of an advertisement is seen in Figure 1. Though the majority of the correspondence came from former students, approximately eighty former teachers answered his call for information.  \nFigure 1. Advertisement from The Jewish Chronicle.  \nIn the early 1990s, when Dr. Davis sought evacuee teacher and student recollections of schooling and education, the body of knowledge on this subject was sparse. Though the scholarship on the  \nsubject of wartime evacuations in England has expanded in the 28 years since Davis’ active  \ncorrespondence, the knowledge of schooling experiences remains wanting. Even less scholarship  \nexists regarding teacher experiences as evacuee educators.  \nIt is important to understand that Davis’ correspondence was not attenuated by his thirty-five  \nquestion guide (Appendix A). Instead, he allowed the conversation to develop organically. Upon  \nreceiving a letter from a respondent, Davis read it and, in most cases, provided a poignant  \nresponse aimed at digging deeper into their lives. In several cases both former students and  \nformer teac","cbCaic3lYiUaass8","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaic3lYiUaass8","pdf",1502831,"English","# Introduction\n## Invisible Teachers","[{\"question\":\"Who initiated the research and how were participants recruited?\",\"answer\":\"Professor O.
