« on: Wednesday 13 July 22 20:57 BST (UK)  »
Thank you all SO much for your replies.   :D :D :D

I had entered the information wrongly on my tree (put it under the wrong sister!) ::) ::) ::).   Ethel Rosina is my gt.aunt and Hannah Lucy, my gt.gt.aunt and I entered the information into the wrong name!
Yes, Hannah Lucy Dakin's death IS registered in Richmond.   I now need to find out where she is buried.
With best wishes - Margaretmarion

London & Middlesex Lookup Requests / Horwood Hairdressers North Kensington
« on: Saturday 19 December 20 15:59 GMT (UK)  »
My gt.Grandfather (Samuel Horwood) and his family had a men's hairdressing business in the Walmer Road area of Kensington during late 1900s to 1950s.   Later, the family moved to Fulham, Brentford, Ealing and Teddington.

There was a slogan above the door of the business: PUT YOUR HAIR IN HORWOODS CARE

I would appreciate, please,  ;) ;) any information or possible photos, please.

Many thanks- Margaretmarion

Thank you so much for the prompt replies, KGarrard and Grandarog.
Yes, William Horwood was in the School that you say, in 1861, Grandarog, but I need to find out where he was in Margate between 1855 and 1861.

I do appreciate your interest, both of you.

Kent Lookup Requests / Searching for WILLIAM HORWOOD Margate Infant School 1855
« on: Sunday 05 July 20 16:24 BST (UK)  »
PLEASE    :-X :-X
WILLIAM HORWOOD was born in 1850, Marylebone, Middlesex (now London).  He was the 5th of six children of Edward and Sophia (Gra(i)nger) Horwood.   (Sophia died 1854). 
In 1855 the family entered St Marylebone Workhouse.  In the same year father Edward entered Middlesex Lunatic Asylum (Hanwell).
The children were dispersed and WILLIAM HORWOOD was sent to MARGATE Infant School on 10th August, 1855.
I enquired at the London Metropolitan Archives and also wrote to the Kent Archives (Maidstone) but they have no records of an infant school.
I have since discovered that there was a Metropolitan Infirmary for Children in Margate and also an  Asylum for the Support and Education of the Deaf and Dumb Children of the Poor.
Would be VERY grateful, please for a kind soul to help me, PLEASE.   Or for advice.

Many thanks - margaretmarion    :P :P :P

Thank you very much, Goldie, for the index link.

 ??? ??? ???  My Apologies:
Thomas D(e)akin married Jane Dagley 04 NOV 1750.   (I was given Dakin by a.n.other)
 Jane Dagley was bapt. 15 June 1723, All Saints, Alrewas, Staffs (parent:  Edward Dagley & Mary Yates). - Parish Records.

Thank you, Annette for the date of a possible Thomas Deakin bp.5/3/1722 Lichfield, son of Thomas.
Another possibility to investigate!

Thank you all.   I am SO grateful for such a quick response.

PLEASE
I am looking for the father of THOMAS DAKIN who married Jane Dagley, 16 June 1763, All Saints, Alrewas, Staffordshire.
I do not have Thomas' baptism or date of birth - there are so many Thomas Dakins in Staffordshire.
Many thanks - margaretmarion
