Would you know a reason why this chapel was used? Do you know where was actually buried?

My younger daughter is hoping to get me elected as a brother, and the concept is alluring.However the prospect for success does not seem very high. R.V. Orange

My great grandfather’s eldest child was baptised at St Thomas Charterhouse 3rd March 1861 so I wonder if this was the actual font that was used? This is another lovely interesting post, one of so many with family connections for me. Thank you.

I was on the bus from Hackney and was unsure of where to alight, and fortunately spotted an impeccably attired gentleman who I was sure would know, and he did. Your readers might be interested to know of the partnership with the Museum of London which will soon open the Charterhouse to the public and limited schools visits as part of a regeneration of the area. Brothers will be intrinsically involved in the project, through giving tours of their home.
