LIST OF CANADIAN GUNSMITHS FROM 1650 TO 1900 LONDON GUNSMITHS FROM 1850 TO 1900 Copyright 1986 FOREWARD The English portion of this listing was originally complied by the London Gun Makers Association as an up­ date to Col. Hawkers list that stopped In 1850. To that extent it Is successful; however the researcher should note that when using the list to establish dates of operation for a particular firm, care should be exercised for a couple of reasons. One reason is that the list begins with 1850 and ends at 1900. When these 2 dates appear along with the firms listing it does not mean that the firm began operations In 1850 (although some may have) nor does a final date of 1900 mean that a firm ended its operations In that year, ali it says is that these are the beginning and ending dates of the list itself. Another problem is that some firms did not always list themselves in the London Directory each year; ap­ parently some firms did not feel the need to do so with the result that there may be gaps in years of operation. However with all that said the list of London Gun Makers Is stili the only reliable listing of firms in business during that time ever created.

  • A Walk Through Westminster
    A walk through Westminster Updated: 8 March 2019 Length: About 2¼ miles Duration: Around 3½ hours BACKGROUND Westminster has been at the centre of religion, royalty and political power for over a thousand years, and this walk covers each of these. The original area on which the Houses of Parliament and the Abbey were built lies on what was called Thorney Island. This was just marshy land where the River Tyburn, which rises in Hampstead, flowed into the Thames. It is known as the ‘City of Westminster’ because for a short while the Abbey was classified as a cathedral – in the same way that the City of London is called a city because of St Paul’s. (The reason for it being called a cathedral is further explained in the notes and appendix.) WHERE TO START THE WALK The walk starts outside Westminster tube station, which is served by the Jubilee, Circle and District Lines. The station was rebuilt to accommodate the Jubilee Line in a rather futuristic and ‘brutalist’ style of architecture (which in this instance I rather like). There are also numerous bus routes that serve the area. 1 BEFORE YOU BEGIN THE WALK … A few words on the River Thames and Westminster Bridge The bridge and the River Thames are just 100 yards or so away from the station, where the walk begins. So, if you would like to take a look at them first, then leave the station via Exit 1. Cross the Embankment, passing the statue of Boadicea and her daughters on a chariot. It was erected in in 1902, though not without some controversy as although she may have ‘tried to defend our shores by attacking the Roman invaders’, in doing so she hung, burnt and crucified tens of thousands of innocent people.

  • Anabaptist Walk
    An Anabaptist's Walk in London by Alan and Eleanor Kreider Introduction The first Mennonite who made England his home, the Canadian John Coffman, arrived in London during an air raid in 1940. For the next five years, he distributed food and clothing and took care of orphans as a representative of the Mennonite Central Committee, the relief and development agency of the North American Mennonite Churches. In this he was assisted by Eileen Pells Coffman, whom he met and married in London. After the war John and Eileen worked as Mennonite missionaries with the Finsbury Mission and the Free Gospel Hall; in 1967 they retired in Highgate. They were much-loved parental figures among English Mennonites, and died in 1990 and 1999 respectively. John Coffman enjoyed taking tourists to sites in London that the tour-buses missed. The typical tourist, John knew, visited sites associated with privilege, royalty and military might. But there was another history – a Nonconformist history – that had left more obscure monuments in the area to the north of the City where John and Eileen had worked in the bleak, ration-ridden post-war years. So John devised the itinerary that we have followed in the following pages. Several times John took us with him on his walk; to our delight it always involved stopping for tea at a well-chosen restaurant! We have built on his itinerary, inserting a few additional stops, biographical information and literary materials that we hope will evoke something of the spirit of the people whom the places will recall. Most of the people whom the walk commemorates were not Anabaptists (who were almost entirely absent from England after 1575); and one of them, the Protestant John Bradford, probably would have been willing to see the Anabaptists burned.
