Who had the Mitre Square sign then

[Christian]

Just looked through some of my images and noticed sign was amiss made me chuckle !!

[Rob1n]

Don't know but, I've got one set/cobble stone!

What I'd really like to know is who's got the "Miller's ct " sign.

A friend of mine has got a very large Miller’s Court sign but it’s not the original. Pity we don’t have any artefacts. There’s Don Rumbelows knife of course and Amos Simpson’s lamp. I also recall hearing Stewart Evans say that he had some scrapings of green paint from the door of 29 Hanbury Street.

When you think about it there are quite a lot of artefacts with a WM murder connection known to exist.

Watkin's handcuffs, truncheon, whistle and a notebook..................

Eddowes's shawl.......................

Helson's 1902 medal.

Watkin's 1887/97 medal.

Badham's 1887/97 & 02 medals.

Scholes`s 97 & 11 medals.

I wonder how many more are lying undiscovered in boxes in attics around the country? I’ve always found it a little surprising that no definite photograph of Aberline exists (we have possible one of course) I would have thought that he would have become quite a prominent citizen in Bournemouth? A member of clubs or societies perhaps or charitable organisations. Who knows?

Hi Herlock,

During the twenty-six years between his March 1903 Pall Mall Gazette interview in London and his 1929 death in Bournemouth, the detective most closely associated with the Whitechapel murders fell off the social radar. From available records this keen gardener and rose-grower does not appear to have been a member of any of the town’s horticultural or social clubs, nor any of its many Freemason Lodges.

The Bournemouth Graphic, 12th May 1916, reported the funeral of Mr. James Anderson of ‘Belgravia,’ Holdenhurst Road, Bournemouth, at which one of the mourners was a “Mr. Abberlin [sic] (Knyveton Gardens Bowling Club).”

The club exists today, but a search through the old membership records by the generous Match Secretary, Paul Beards, failed to locate a Mr. Abberlin or Abberline.

Regards,

Simon

Hi Simon,

Thanks for that information Simon. Fred must have been quite a private person then? I’d have expected him to have been a kind of minor local celebrity.

So so it looks like we will have to make do with the possible photograph in the Evans/Rumbelow? Do we know if there are any descendants around? I’m assuming that a search has been made?

Especially the watercolour of Mitre Square.
