  • [S127] Interview with John George Pluck (unknown informant address), by Christopher C W Gray, 09/08/2002. Unknown repository (unknown repository address). Discussion with Grandpa (John G Pluck) on 09/08/2002. He had two sisters: Molly and Anna. Molly has just had her 93rd Birthday (08/08/02) at the Ravens care home in Hook (Hampshire). Molly married a ? May and had no children. Anna lived in Camberley (Surrey) and was married twice. The first time was at the beginning of WW2. She met an army captain (? Peacock) who was about to go off to war – having been in the reserves - and married him. Unfortunately he died in the war. As a widow, she had use of the facilities of the Army Staff college (Camberley). The college, or its grounds, was used for caring for returning prisoners of war (e.g. from Japanese camps) and Anna was asked to help out. While there, she met a Canadian army Major and went to Canada with him. Unfortunately the marriage didn’t work out (he was violent? due to experiences in the camps?) and sought a divorce. John knew a solicitor who had contacts in a Canadian law firm – the process was difficult as it was in Canada and they were Roman Catholics. I don’t know the result, but she returned to Camberly to live. Anna had two children – Michael by the first marriage and Joanne by the second. Michael was a house-master at St John’s (choral) school in Cambridge for 25 years. He has helped with looking after his Aunt’s (Molly’s) affairs. Molly used to live at East Horsley. She first moved to a care home in Liphook run by a charity (nuns?). Unfortunately, all residents were asked to leave (closing down?) and there was not much time to find a decent alternative. Michael found a place in Camberly. However, this was very unsuitable and the place at Hook was then found.
    During the war – John was attached to the War Office as a land agent – for example arranging compensation for farmers when their land was used for pill-boxes, bunkers, “ack ack” towers, etc. He rose to the rank of captain (army).
    John’s brother Nibbs (Neville) was a bachelor and had a farm in Essex/Suffolk. He was a very thoughtful, compassionate man who believed in looking after his farm workers. They all had cottages on the farm and, in his will, were given tenancy for as long as they lived. He bought the property (all of it?) from Lord & Lady Tollypuddle (sp?). Theere was some woodland which hadn’t been touched for many years and the locals used to take leaf mould from it. Nibbs took a sample to the Agricultural colledge at Chelmsford (where he had studied) and was told that it was worth a fortune – excellent mix of sands, minerals, etc – ideal for golf course, bowling greens, etc. Nibbs was told that the land was useless and picked it up for £5/acre. He used straw-based manure from local farms, and woolen waste (e.g. trimming from mills) obtained from London, both dug into the soil to improve the water retention. He started orchards growing Cox apples (we received boxes every year at Fieldway) – after being told that only Kent was suitable. The business grew and he was supplying companies such as Marks & Spencers and Sainsbury. While M&S were happy to receive pre-packed fruits, Sainsbury insisted on receiving them in bulk – much less profitable to Nibbs. He started using pre-packed (e.g. 4-6 apples per pack) to supply factory workers in the Midlands. This was an idea he picked up in the USA – a place he thoroughly enjoyed and frequently visited. His first visit was when he was selected (by ?) as part of a group.
    Nibbs tried a bit of everything. He tried farming pigs and then ran a small dairy herd. He built on the woods by starting up his own – partially funded by tax-breaks. He enjoyed shooting – pheasant and partridge (I seem to remember that we were sent a brace at Fieldway – something about finding lead shot). He encouraged locals to hunt for rabbits (e.g. shooting and ferreting), and often hunted himself. Jane (John’s wife) liked to eat rabbit. Nibbs hated seeing animals suffering and was distraught when he saw rabbits with mixymatosis – either killing them himself, or asking someone else to.
    Nibbs was at the coast (Lowestoft?) in 1987 when the big storms hit. On returning home he found that the woods that he had built up since he was 18 had all been flattened. Later that year (August), he was again on the coast when a hail storm (stones as big as golf balls) lashed his orchards – totally destroying his crops which were just ready for harvesting. Soon afterwards, he seemed to give up mentally and physically. He went to Addenbrookes Hospital (Cambridge) where they looked for a medical reason for his mental state. John told the consultant neurologist that Nibbs just needed a rest. Anyway – they found nothing wrong and Nibbs returned home. He died soon afterwards “of a broken heart”.
    Nibbs’ middle name was Eagan (sp?) – his mothers maiden name. She came from Ireland.
    John’s father was Frederick and was born in Braintree. He rented a house from the Courtauld family at the start. Frederick and Emily (nee Egan) moved to Bournemouth because she didn’t like the cold in East Anglia. They were there during the war because John can remember swimming and looking up to see German reconnaissance planes.
    John worked for Arnold and Sons as an estate agent, land agent and auctioneer. Before the war he managed their Ashtead office (they had offices at Leatherhead, Dorking, Horsham, Ashtead & ?). After the war he went back, but as a partner (he borrowed the money from his father (@5% interest) for a quarter share of the business). There were two Arnolds – the other partner was a Turner. The Arnolds retired and the company split with John buying the Dorking office while Mr Turner and his son bought the rest. The spit companies retained the Arnold & Son name. He often officiated at animal auctions and loved sales and shows (e.g. the Surrey show at Guildford). He liked to see point-to-points (he took me to see one at Ranmoor common). Previously he had worked in Loughborough
    When he was about 56, he and his wife (Jane) were having dinner with Stanley and Marjorie Burt (old friends) when John had severe stomach pains. He went home and the doctor was called (23:30). He rushed John into a nursing home where a consultant saw him. Though tired, the consultant called his senior nurse in and operated. John had a burst ulcer and, if he had not been operated on that night, would have been dead soon after breakfast. The ulcer was brought on by the stress of working with the other partners and by the issues with running the business. He approached his accountant and asked if he could afford to retire. Apparently John had bought a number of properties (run down cottages, shops, etc) and the Dorking office (which he owned) could be let and he could live off the proceeds. So, they moved from the bungalow to West Chiltington (Sussex) where they stayed until Jane died (1986?).
