I have discovered, or think, that my Great Grandfather was at this School in 1881. Does anyone know where I find the admissions for this School. Would it be the LMA or Natonal Archives? Any help appreciated. Linda |

Hi Gerri I found him on the 1881 Census, Frederick Kemp. Not quite sure where I would find the admissions for the School as I think he also had Brothers. My Great Aunt, the only surviving Child of Frederick does not know very much about her Dad. Linda |

Yes, I got my ancestor's details from the LMA. It was fantastic ... they gave me this dusty old ledger to go through. I leafed through it page by fragile page and then.... hand written... all the details I had been hoping for. You'll want the Admissions Register and the Creed Register. |

Linda, I would check that they have these records before you go to the LMA, unless you are going there anyway. Cheers, Horatia |
