Birth name[edit]

In her autobiography, Mrs Branson refers to her being christened 'Evette Huntley' (in relation to her brother being christened Michael Leighton); her father's name is given as Rupert 'Huntley-Flindt', implying this is the family's surname. This, then, would make her 'Evette Huntley Huntley-Flindt'; in fact, her birth record available in numerous places gives her name as 'Evette H. Flindt'. Later in the book, she refers to herself as 'Evette Huntley-Flindt', implying that in common usage (as commonly encountered particularly amongst the upper and upper-middle classes) this name is appended to the surname. Several military references to her father on Google books give his name as Rupert Ernest Huntley Flindt, with the implication being that 'Huntley' is a second middle name. Just a note to explain my edit of 11th April 2015, which included reference to Mrs Branson's maiden name. Ashiyura (talk) 11:15, 11 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Military police officer?[edit]

Here's a online edition of her her book. Where does she say she was a "military police officer"? I am unable to locate it. Thanks. Martinevans123 (talk) 09:13, 30 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
