The Lighter Side / Differences in Scottish and English Divorce law in 1850s.
« on: Wednesday 27 March 24 22:30 GMT (UK)  »
Whilst exploring this divorce I came across these interesting differences in Scottish and English approaches to these processes in the 1850s.
As I have no knowledge or experience of Latin legal terms and jargon, this article is difficult to follow but I try again in the morning!

The family Doctor was always an iconic figure in our family post War, 'Doctor Stoll', but what was his first forename!

Using Google Streetview, I see that his one-man surgery address is now a Dentists but in 2008 it was 'Heath Health Care' at 6,Constantine Road NW3.

From an Obit. the most likely man [Lionel died aged 100 in 2007] had several STOLL brothers, possibly born in Lithuania,  all Doctors in NW London phone book, Lionel Julian 1907, Basil Arnold 1917, and Henry 1913 [so far] and not all living 'over the shop'.

Have you ever reflected upon the significance of your family doctor in our childhood and later life? A different NHS today, before the 'take your pick' of the Group Practices where you rarely see the same GP twice!
Who was your most memorable Doctor? Do you know their forenames? Are they still living?

London and Middlesex / Twin BARNES brothers 1920 Camberwell. Who was their father?
« on: Monday 26 February 24 20:50 GMT (UK)  »

Births Sep 1920   (>99%)
Barnes    John S L    Cartr [spelling]    Camberwell    1d   1520    
Barnes    William M L  Carter    Camberwell    1d   1520

I believe their father died when they were aged about 12 [1932/3]
and their mother might be:
Rosa Garlick Carter
1891–1987
BIRTH 19 APR 1891 • London, England
DEATH SEP 1987 • St Ives, PENZANCE, Cornwall
but so far I do not have her marriage to a Mr Barnes.
