Charles Lechmere interesting link

[MrBarnett]

I thought seafood because there seems to be a pint pot on the barrow.

Neither .. The old fella was a friend of his and the young fellow was a neighbor's son who would help him out .. I did know what they used to sell around the streets , but for the life of me I cant recall ! I will find out . I think it was some kink of fruit ???

Fish,

I've got a feeling it was also a kind of butter or margarine.

MrB

Makes sense. Thereīs a butter/margarine called Flora over here today, and that box is no porcelain box. Flora Danica to a Scandinavian is porcelain, though. Pricy, pricy porcelain.

It wouldnīt have made the East End.

I'm sure I detect a ghost like image behind the net curtain.
Which one's your grandpapa Moonbeggar?

The old geezer in the cheesecutter or the young Teddy Boy?

"Flora Danica" is famous Danish porcelain with flower motives on it, I know that much. Whether that wooden box was stuffed with it, I doubt ...

[MrBarnett]

What's he selling? Whelks?

My first job was as a whelker in Billingsgate.

MrB

[moonbegger]

ouch .. sorry about the size malarkey .. trying to fix it

[moonbegger]

This is a friend of my Granddad's outside Lawendes house , Mitcinson/Norfolk road .. I'm pretty sure that's not him in the doorway

[moonbegger]

I doubt there were many people with Ripper connections in the hyper-community orientated streets where Lawende lived.So one might suppose that in the local 'street lore' there would be some remembrance along the lines of 'watch out for that house. It's 'Ripper House'. But no. Lawende's involvement was consigned to the memory bin. If it was ever known about in the area where he lived. After all maybe he kept himself to himself.

Very Good ..

cheers

Ed,

So, 22 years after the events, eh? And Lech lived at 22 Doveton Street? Coincidence piles upon coincidence. (JOKE! No need for anyone to get upset.)

MrB

Lechmere actually lived in Carlton Road in 1910 (lets hope thatīs correct, or I shall have to find myself an eighteen-tailed cat...)

Can I be upset about the faulty impression you gave ...?

The best,
Fisherman

[Fisherman]

Christer has made a major error. Quite reprehensible and even laughable.
The picture is likely to be from 1910, not 1912.
I'm afraid it isn't for general release at the moment though.

Iīll get me nine-tailed cat ...

I can imagine that making the Pinchin Street connection was rather satisfying.

Mr B
When I was first checking through aspects relating to Charles Lechmere and connecting him to the Whitechapel Murders, one of the first aspects which stood out to me was the Pinchin Street link.
