1887

Nella's husband Will Last was born William Arthur S Last on 11 December 1887 and died on 19 May 1969, less than a year after she died.

1940

As part of the government's wartime Mass Observation scheme, she kept a very detailed diary of the ways in which the Second World War affected her life as a housewife in the Lancashire ship-building town of Barrow-in-Furness, describing the changing role of women in 1940s Britain as a result of the war, her reactions to her sons' wartime service and injuries, and her love/hate relationship with her dour and depressed husband.

1966

Nella Last was a Cumbrian housewife with a talent for writing who chronicled her life for the social research organisation, Mass Observation. Many other Mass Observation diaries, now held in the Mass Observation Archive at the University of Sussex, ended with the conclusion of World War II.
