Mike, You could try contacting the Royal Wimbledon Golf Club. http://www.rwgc.*co.uk They were one of the first London golf clubs. T Dunn was based in Tooting Bec. Could have been them: http://www.antiquegolfscotland.*com/antiquegolf/maker.php3?makerid=197 Crista

He may have commuted elsewhere to make his golf-clubs! I don't know of any, but would suggest you could a) google and see what happens b) find out where the local trade directories of the time are kept and have a look through them nell

I have a cousin twice removed who lived in Steatham London who on the 1901 census was down as a golf club maker. Does anyone know of any golf club manufacturers in that area. Thanks for any help you can give Mike
