Re your posts concerning Glen Andred and Groombridge you may still be interested in details of the Miss Galloway who was the principal of the educational establishment which was based there at the end of the first world war. Please see below.

Most of the source material regarding teaching is either from Cambridge University archives or newspaper advertisements for schools. It is believed that at some time she taught in South Africa – possibly in the early or late 1880s. She was unmarried. Further details of the source material can be supplied if of interest. Any information regarding the move to or away from Glen Andred would be of interest to me as would any photographs of the lady in question.
