Sussex / Queen Victoria in Brighton.......
« on: Thursday 09 January 20 21:51 GMT (UK) »
I know from other reading that Queen Victoria had holidays in the Brighton area. My mother told me that family legend says that my 3rd great-grandfather, William Stredwick, "took care of the Queen's horses." I know he lived & died in the Brighton area (1795-1866.) I wonder if the Queen kept horses in Brighton or had a stable there? I know it may only be legend but often legends have a kernel of truth, which I'd love to uncover! Are there any historical resources or records that tell about Queen Victoria's activities in Brighton that might give me clues?
