Hi Jeff

Thanks once again for your very informative email! Very exciting news about your GT grandad's apprenticeship papers! I wonder if some of my relatives were in than photo too next to yours?!

Yes, my Charley is Theophilus (died 1918) and Julia's son. He was quite a character! He had a wife, Marguerite Cooper and one son, Ivan Constance (my paternal grandad) in Ross on Wye, where he had a music shop in Gloucester Road. He taught piano and drums and his wife too. This is where the piano tuning business eventually developed of Ivan Constance & Sons Piano Tuners. My uncle John and father, Stephen Constance continue and business today! Anyway, Charley had a mistress too in London and would CYCLE to London to see her. When Marguerite died, Charley married the mistress and had another son.

I must have a look at then journal you talk about, sounds very interesting!!

Thanks again for all your help

Best Wishes

Sophie
