Northampton PO in WW2

[uptodat]

My late father was an SC&T at Northampton before going off to the RN in 1941. In the family is a collection of wartime newsletters called "Northampton News". About 400 of these were produced each month and distributed to staff, families and the ex-staff in the services all over the world. Each issue of between 2 and 10 closely typed pages contained excerpts of letters from the servicemen and must have taken a huge amount of effort to produce. Read together they give quite an insight into attitudes of the time and I believe a possibly unique piece of social history. Northampton may have been unique in publishing such newsletters and it appears there were real benefits to morale and industrial relations.
I have scanned the fragile papers, 300+, and am indexing and researching the names mentioned, contacting families and giving access to the images on line. The plan is to make all the material available to the public and then to donate the originals to the British Postal Museum and Archive.
I would love to hear from anyone with any connection to Northampton PO in those days or descendants of staff who worked there who may be able to explain the PO locations referred to. (I know where all the pubs mentioned are or were!)
I have already traced family of the Head Postmaster but am struggling to find anything on Allon Needham Smith who edited the newsletter with his wife Gwen.
Hoping someone can help!

Somehow the Head Postmaster's wartime leather-bound photo album has survived. Photos are missing because they were presented to retiring staff but about 100 remain and have been added to the web album and labelled with names at

This latest block of pics is in alphabetical order and the bottom of the web album and includes most of the staff killed in the services during WW2.
