The name was Salvatore Said. He collected silver pocket watches and this watch was among the collection.

Hi Elain
I'd love to know the history of your maternal grandparents because reading the posts it seems like they moved a bit in their times.
Did they go to Malta as part of the British garrison stationed there by any chance? I am from a Maltese family and your ancestor's watch came with some other watches collected by an elderly relative of mine who's passed away there and was a lot into British memorabilia. I tried restoring the watch because it's such good quality but it seems impossible so I gave up and it's going to Ebay. Meantime here's the pcis I promised you. Cheers. Joanne

Hi
I believe you were interested in a Jonathan Grindlow(Gundlow?) Taylor from Dronfield. I have a silver pocket watch that was passed to me with an inscription bearing this name and the year 1877. No idea as to how we came by this watch. But let me know in case of any interest and I'll send you some pics. Regards
