Description: Dorothy Campbell was born in North Belfast in 1920. She never moved very far from the Antrim and New Lodge Roads area of the city, apart from a three year stint in England during the war. The eldest of five children, Dorothy followed the family tradition into the civil service. After losing an arm during World War I, Dorothy's father was retrained as a civil servant. Her abiding memory of him is playing the box accordion, very well, while holding it between his knees!
