Simon Hamon
SIMON HAMON has grown up with a keen interest in history which was sparked by his grandfather who was the first president of the Guernsey Ancient Monuments Committee, a position he held for thirty-three years. As a teenager, Simon focused on local history and in the 1980s joined the Channel Island Occupation Society. Having come into contact with what he describes as ‘Living History’, Simon has subsequently spent many hours talking with people who lived through the German Occupation, all part of his aim to research and record the events that affected the Channel Islands during the Second World War.
