Ham Photos is a growing archive of photos of Ham (at the meeting of Richmond upon Thames and Kingston upon Thames in south-west London), where I have lived since 1996. It captures the small changes that are easily missed and delights in the unusual, the unexpected and the unnoticed.

I saw Gordon House for the first time today. My great-great-grandfather was living in the house next-door at the time of the 1861 census, sadly 4 years before he hanged himself in the house leaving my great-grandmother as a 2 year old child. A beautiful house in a beautiful setting.
ReplyDeleteMy Great Grandmother gave Gordon House as her address on her marriage certificate in 1908. If anyone has any information as to who owned the property at that time (we don't think our family owned the property she may have been employed there as a seamstress/milliner) we would be very interested.
