Wow!  You’re going to Kurseong?

I understand that George was close to stepfather Henry Teviot Kerr.  You can find out more in Burke’s Peerage.  Not the same family as the current Lord and Lady Teviot (the title died out) who happen to be genealogists based in West Sussex (where the Linberrys lived/live) and President of the Sussex Family History Group. 

I understand that Emma was from a shipping family.

Hello Belinda,

I do, although I never solved the mystery of Albert’s death.  How can I help?

Essex / Re: FAWARY road name in Custom House

Excellent.  Thank you all.  I hadn’t considered ‘g’.  It’s a while since I did this and obviously need to get back in the groove.

Essex / FAWARY road name in Custom House
« on: Tuesday 18 February 20 17:01 GMT (UK)  »
I’d be grateful if someone could help with this road name.  I have tried a variety of possible alternatives, including on websites relating to name changes and roads that no longer exist.  My eyes have gone square from scrutinising maps.  It is the address given for a burial, of Doris Rose Emma Double, at St Mary Magdalene, East Ham, on 31 March 1907.

Thank you.

London and Middlesex / White Hart, Northolt
« on: Sunday 14 August 16 16:53 BST (UK)  »
Hi,

I am aiding and abetting a friend who is researching someone who was brought up at the White Hart, Northolt, in the 1830s.  We have noticed from Google maps that the pub has recently been boarded up but that a planning application for redevelopment has been declined on technical issues.  If anyone uses the White Hart roundabout regularly, we would like to know what state it is in or, indeed, whether it has been demolished.  If any locals have some insight into the situation, the info would be gratefully received. 

Thank you.

Deborah (and Chris)

Sussex Lookup Requests / Worthing Sports 1907
« on: Sunday 24 January 16 15:27 GMT (UK)  »
Hi,

I wonder whether anyone has access to local papers which may have reported on the Worthing Sports of 1907.  I don't know whether these would have taken place on one day or over several.  I have found a reference to a 5 mile bike race on 21st August.  Specifically, I am interested in a mailcart competition.

Thank you.

Hi,

I would appreciate a photograph of the gravestone for Olbert Walter Binder, Block 1, Grave 466 if anyone is planning on visiting or lives nearby.

Thank you.

Deborah
