Just to say that there is an annual commemoration of the snow avalanche that struck Lewes in Sussex on 27th December 1836.
It is held on 27th December at The Snowdrop in South Malling. I have been tracing the descendants of those who were killed, injured or just caught up in this disaster.
Details below.
