Member Since: October 2003 Posts: 481 Send Message	I found a bit on the net about this school but I wonder if there is anymore? I have discovered that my great grand and her sister were there in 1881 yet the mother who was widowed was a nurse somewhere in Kingston upon Thames and her one child has vanished?? Are there records I could look at somewhere hidden away??

	You could try Willesden Local History Society: www(.)willesden(-)local(-)history(.)co(.)uk This covers Kilburn area as well as other places. You could also try: Brent Archive and Library 152 Olive Road, Cricklewood NW2 6UY. Website: www(.)brent(.)gov(.)uk(/)archive There is an E mail address but I cannot write it here as the site will not let me! If you search Brent Archive you can get the E Mail address that way. Kilburn is in the Brent area for Historical Archives. I would think that one of these places should be able to help you with your enquiry. Remove brackets. Janet
