Hi

It has been a while since my last post on this - Unfortunately I have still not found out the name of the Lewes magazine who wanted to write about Tom Mantell.

However I have found an article dated May 1953 from a local newspaper about a plaque being placed in the private ward at Victoria Hospital, Lewes in memory of Tom Mantell, seems he was a benefactor to the hospital, so I thought I would share this info.

Now I am wondering if the plaque is still there ? as I may well visit Lewes sometime, if anyone knows
if it is or not that would be most appreciated.

Sue

Hi again

thanks for your quick reply Sarah, that explains why I have not had a response back from Ellen to my PM - yes hopefully someone local will know which magazine it could be

Does anyone know the name of the Lewes magazine mentioned in earlier message? as I would be interested to see the article about Thomas Mantell which may have been published or is due to be published.

Thank you

Hi Chris

You previously mentioned you have the records for Tom Mantell concerning his baptism plus his relatives and any siblings at St Johns Sub Castro, if you could possibly send these to me too that would be great

Regards

Hi Chris

Thank you so much for the pictures and details of the Mantells, its nice to start to get to know them as my Great Grandmother was Tom's housekeeper at 161 High St Lewes for about 30 years until he died

I am finding out lots about his history as an athlete especially running and winning lots of trophies of which he left some to the Lewes Corporation back in 1928 ( I wonder what happened to them ? )

I visited Lewes records office for the first time two weeks ago, so will definitely return again to visit the church and enjoy the lovely town

Regards

Sue

Hello Chris 1066

I am researching a Tom Mantell from Lewes who was buried at St Johns Sub Castro in February 1928, is there a family tomb in the churchyard or a stained glass window in the Church which I believe Tom Mantell wished to have installed when he died (listed in his will I believe) ?

Many thanks

Sue
