The Reverend Frank Gould
« on: Tuesday 23 January 24 16:37 GMT (UK) »
I am trying to learn more about the Reverend Frank Gould who was a vicar at the church of St. John the Divine, Garratt Lane, Earlsfield, Wandsworth in the early to mid 1950's. By 1957 I believe he may have moved to a diocese in Lewisham, south west London and he was instrumental in giving comfort to some of the victims of the Lewisham train disaster which occurred in December of that year. I'd be very grateful if anybody can provide any information about him. Many thanks.

Per newspaper mentions, he moved to Earlsfield as vicar of St John's in June 1957. Previously curate at Holy Trinity, Roehampton.

By 1968 he was vicar of St Andrew's, Catford.

Many thanks, Shaun. Could you let me have the name of the newspaper you consulted, please?

I looked in the newspaper database on FindMyPast, which is the same collection as the British Newspaper Archive.
