    Notes 
    • !After leaving IOW, address was Clyde Rd, Croydon,SE Lnd. Later when he lived at 123 Drakefell Road (where Alfred Walter SIMMONS was married from) Herbert grew white raspberries and Alexandra roses. He had many African trophies from his time working on railway in Africa. He painted some oak picture frames white much to the horror of his wife. They had left IOW by 1897 as pictures in S86 show the new manager in 1897 (Mr Conacher?)

      They also lived at 163 Drakefell Rd - very ornate frontage.
