Comments on: At Rinkoff’s Bakery https://spitalfieldslife.com/2022/03/02/at-rinkoffs-bakery-x/ In the midst of life I woke to find myself living in an old house beside Brick Lane in the East End of London Fri, 20 Sep 2024 14:24:47 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=7.0 By: Stewart Flisher https://spitalfieldslife.com/2022/03/02/at-rinkoffs-bakery-x/#comment-1625000 Fri, 20 Sep 2024 14:24:47 +0000 https://spitalfieldslife.com/?p=190828#comment-1625000 Hello Miklos. My name is Stewart Flisher and I am researching my family history. My maternal grandfather, Ernest Henry Turner was I believe Head Gardener at How Green House in Kent, and Frederick and Maria Floris may have been his employer, perhaps after 1949. Please do you have any information in any records that might be able to confirm this? They seemed to share a love of roses. Good luck with your exhibition too. Thank you.

Currently, I am working on an exhibition about their legacy in Budapest. Every help is welcome.

Between a paper map, which is not very good, and Google Maps, I am learning my way around the neighborhoods.
I am home with a broken wrist, so I have lots of time now.
Thank you to the Rinkoffs for telling an important story.

Thanks to you Gentle Author for bringing us these pieces which are an excellent antidote to these troubling times.
