I have come upon the dissolution of a trading partnership between two brothers whose business was on Fenchurch Street, London.  This was published during April 1855 in The London Gazette.
Can anyone direct me to further resources either online or at an archive where I may be able to further research the company name under which the brothers traded, i.e., documentation to do with its formation and dissolution which might provide personal address details, dates of birth or ages of the partners.  I am hoping such personal information might confirm whether these two brothers are members of my family.
I had wondered about the Sun Fire Office papers held by the LMA but it is impossible for me to access those as I am not London based.
Thank you for any help you are able to give me.

Emma’s death occurred in Tooting Bec Hospital in 1942.  On the death certificate, under ‘Occupation’ is written ‘of 7 Fitzjohn Avenue, Hampstead, widow of Henry Carter a Carman’.  The man reporting her death was her son, Charles Carter of Carshalton, Surrey.

I am not certain that this  is ‘my’ Emma.  Everything seems to fit.  She was a widow and her husband was called Henry (died 1906)  and his former occupation had been that of a carman.  In 1939 she was resident in Lewisham, hence her possible hospitalization in Tooting Bec Hospital at the time of her death. Emma and Henry had a son Charles  and indeed, if I have followed the correct line, he and his wife Maud  lived at Carshalton for many years.  However, Emma was born south of the Thames and spent her entire life there so I do not understand the connection with 7 Fitzjohn Avenue in Hampstead.

I have researched this address and found that the Sisters of Mercy of the Holy Cross established themselves at  3  Fitzjohn Avenue and nursed wounded soldiers here until the end of WW2.  They also acquired 5-7 Fitzjohn Avenue (date not known) which was established as a girl’s school and which closed in 1985.  No. 3 is associated with the artist Laszlo and upon his death in 1937, the sisters established themselves at this address.

Can anyone suggest why Emma may have spent time at 7 Fitzjohn  Avenue after a lifetime spent south of the Thames.

Thank you

I am researching the names of soldiers whose names are inscribed on the WW1 memorial in the village church of St Katherine and St Peter's, Winterbourne Bassett, near Swindon, Wiltshire.

I have gathered some information with regard to the early years of these soldiers but I am finding it very difficult to establish what became of them in later years post-war, who they married and whether they had children and when and where the soldier died.

If anyone is able to give me any information on the following names or assist with any photographs, I should be extremely grateful.
