Found Box of Goodies from WW2

PLEASE HELP ME FIND WHO THIS FAMILY IS!
Yesterday in Holloway rd (29.07.15), London. I found this box with old photos and some letters and certificates etc from the army. There is nothing of financial value but, I bet the family that this has come from will be missing it greatly! I think there is a strong connection with the Perrin family. Please can everyone share this so it can get back to its rightful owner!








I did a bit of research and found Joan E. Wheeler born Oct-Dec 1919 in Maidenhead, Hampshire England. She appears to be the Joan in the letters above. 

If you want to help, please leave comments here on this blog or contact Mr. Truscott through his Facebook page.

Thank you to the reader who emailed me this information:

Re the wedding Moss-Perrin:
Name Grahame Moss
Event Type Marriage Registration
Registration Quarter Apr-May-Jun
Registration Year 1982
Registration District Windsor & Maidenhead
County Berkshire
Event Place Windsor & Maidenhead, Berkshire, England
Spouse Name (available after 1911) Perrin

Louise Mary Perrin married on the same day/ place so no doubt this is hiswife

in 2002, grahame moss of the right age is at Portland, dorset with Claire Perin and Louise M. moss


next - UK company directory
in they are both working at
"bedroom ideas limited"
WADEBRIDGE HOUSE 16 WADEBRIDGE SQUARE
POUNDBURY
DORCHESTER
DORSET
DT1 3AQ
UNITED KINGDOM

- so someone in England can look up the phone number,,call "bedroom ideas", talk to mr. or mrs, moss, and presumably find the rest of that family.
