Local children often referred to evacuees as "blitz kids" during World War II, particularly in Britain. This term reflected the children who were evacuated from cities to escape the bombings and dangers of war. Additionally, they sometimes called them "refugees," although this term could vary by region and context. The interactions between local children and evacuees often ranged from curiosity to rivalry, as the newcomers adapted to rural life.
Evacuees in WW2 were allowed teddies. Many pictures of evacuees boarding the trains have children with teddies.

There is no comprehensive official list of evacuees from Essex in 1939, as records were often maintained locally and may vary by locality. Evacuation during World War II involved many children and vulnerable individuals relocating to various areas, primarily rural regions, to escape bombing. Some local authorities may have records of evacuees and their placements, but these are not uniformly compiled at a national level. Local archives or historical societies may provide more specific information on this topic.
