« on: Thursday 28 February 19 12:42 GMT (UK) »
Box of letters,memorium cards and photos relating to the Simmonds family who lived in Forest Hill, Ealing and London from 1900 onwards. Reuben H Simmonds,a Seargeant Drummer in the London Scottish Regiment, had a son Ronald and a daughter Dorothy.  These are her artifacts. She was a piano teacher in South Ruislip. Other relations mentioned are Marianne Lee, d 1916, Sara Simmonds d 1929, Catherine Ward d 1921, Reuben Simmonds d 1942, Theodore Braddon Ward d 1875, Ronald Harry Simmonds d 1960, Theodore Braddon Ward d 1903, Bertha Simmonds d 1920 Sawbridgeworth churchyard, Annie Elizabeth Evans d 1915 Hornchurch, Ellen Sophia Simmonds d 1938 Sawbridgeworth churchyard and Edwin Holman son of Mr W & F Holman 1868.  These are all on memorium cards. There is also a theatre card from the London Palladium from a relative Donald Stuart. I would be happy to pass on these items toanyone who has any of there relatives in their family tree

Greetings, and a warm welcome to Rootschat.

I don't have any interest in these heirlooms, but I just wanted to say thank you for taking the time and trouble to find a good home for them.

Philip
