Hi Satchwell,

Could you narrow it down a bit?  Last date you have them etc?

Hoping someone will be able to help!

In the 1930's my Grandmother worked for the Lady magazine, at 39 Bedford St.  While she worked there, she was photographed and appeared on a magazine cover of a publication that had the next door offices.

I believe this was in the mid 1930's.  I don't know the name of the publication, and was hoping someone could look in a street directory for me, or have some suggestions about other ways I might find out what it was.

Thanks

Julie

 ;D  Thankyou both.  That helps!  Lots of De La Salles and lots with the same forenames, very confusing.
Gradually sorting them out.  (I love a puzzle).

Thanks  ;D

Found a document on Ancestry concerning his apprenticeship.  Fascinating. Will check out the Guildhall library next time I go to London.

Just discovered one of my ancestors, Thomas DeLasalle, was a clockmaker in London in the 1780's.  Found a clock by him in a Bonhams catalogue and a mention in an Old Bailey trial  ;D

Does anyone know if he would have been a member of a Guild or suchlike? And,  if so, ifthere would be records available?

Thanks
