Grr.  >:(

I just lost the message I was going to post. Never mind.

Steven I've just been doing some calculations.

Today is the 2nd of August. In Nathaniel's world it is a Sunday.

Therefore in 7 days time it will be SUNDAY THE 9TH OF AUGUST!

This is the famous 9th of August post that we've all been waiting patiently for. Roll on next Monday!

Hi


I have been looking for John Shepard Bryceson all morning ....

In 1911 he's living in Holborn with Gertrude (2nd wife) so why can't I spot him in 1901  :(


LOL Ruskie ...6 more sleeps until the 9th  ;D

What was his occupation?

The nearest I have found is RG13; Piece:  21; Folio:  83; Page:  6
1 Holland Place, Kensington Town,
John Briston Boarder S 42 Cab Porter Ewell Surrey

Not really close really, but thinking about how somebody might have taken a guess at the spelling of his name.  There's a 50% chance of him not being with his wife.

Howzat! as they say in cricket.    If anyone wants to find it, get a general plan from the cemetery office; find block V2; walk up Straight Path passing Junction Path; a little further on is the prominent grave of John Marshall on the right.  Just beyond and further in is the grave of Merrifield; follow this line in until you come to Spear's grave.   Nathaniel is back to back with this one.
Many thanks to the Islington Cemetery staff who gave me a detailed plot plan.
