REMEMBERED WITH HONOUR

CHATHAM NAVAL MEMORIAL

COMMEMORATED IN PERPETUITY BY THE

COMMONWEALTH WAR GRAVES COMMISSION

They have spelt his name with an extra e - this
does not appear in the marriage registrations
index but either could be in error.

Stanley Livingstone the
son of Wesley was born
in Clapham Fire Station
as was

my father

Leslie Galloway -

see right

War memorial

Pictured is a smoking pipe - opium I
am told - which is possibly what James
Green means and not a lamp - has
anyone heard of a smoking lamp ?
Not sure whether this is silver, there is
not a silver mark that I can see. It has
a lot of chinese characters on the side
and on the back so there is no doubt
where it came from. On reflection I
feel that this item was bought back by
my grand-father Arthur Galloway as
he served as a boy sailor in the China
war and there were several chinese
artifacts amongst his effects. Also as
the lamp was left to Charles not sure
how it came into my particular line
unless Charles gave it to his brother,
who had not been a beneficiary.

JAMES and JANE

Leslie had less success than his gt.
grandfather, with his adventures
into the retail world. His first
shop bought just before the war,
suffered bomb damage and his
business partner fiddled the books.
Unable to go it alone it had to be
sold up and Leslie turned to being
an insurance salesman

Twenty odd years later Leslie decided to try
again and my parents settled on a Card and
Confectionary Shop near Twickenham
which they ran successfully for many years.
They sold up when VAT was introduced as
they did not want the bother of the extra
work they thought this would entail. Then
Leslie ended his working life as a Hampton
Court warden before retirement.
