Researching a Place - Buckinghamshire FHS March Talk At Aylesbury
« on: Friday 23 February 18 13:26 GMT (UK) »
Researching a Place - The people, research and sources involved
Tony Sargeant will discuss what has became the official story of Aldin House involving Angela Burdett Coutts, and the lack of evidence. Tony will discuss the history of the house, and its use as St Michael's School, a Jesuit College and a Convent School, along with the process of research required to discover the facts, and how chance played a part in putting together a story from many sources and a study of the buildings. The illustrated talk will draw in many of the people like Charles Aldin and John Morecraft of Winslow, and their reasons for being involved.
