Estelle Merle O'Brien Thompson was born in India on February 19, 1911. She was educated in that country until the age of 17 when she arrived in London.
To hide her half-Indian parentage, she would falsely represent to visitors that her mother was the maid.
Her father hailed from Britain and her mother from Ceylon (now Sri Lanka).
