1110 From the 1750's to the 1870's, this site was mainly occupied by a house about 38ft wide, owned for most of the time by a family named Topping, who lived there until 1807. The hamlet's apothecary then found it sufficiently salubrious to live there until 1820, when it was taken for dissenting worship. Latterly it was numbered 203-205 and occupied by an auctioneer. Eastward had been two timber-framed houses that were probably part of the hamlet's workhouse in the late 1730's. These were demolished in 1832 and replaced by a single house (No. 207 High Street).

By 1879 the site was owned by T. and G. Oyler, lodging-house keepers in Wapping. In that year they had a common lodging house built here in two large blocks. Called St James's Chambers, the establishment housed no fewer than 420 lodgers, in big dormitories.

George served almost his entire military career in India which is where he met and married Eve Ilene Astridge and they had their first 3 children. He was clearly suited to life in the army as he gained promotion to Corporal on 29 April 1905 and to Sergeant on 30 April 1910.

During his service he suffered from some serious illnesses. Amongst others are ...

* 16 July 1908: Bitten by a dog (which died 2 days later) resulting in 17 days ante-rabies treatment at the Pasteur Institute in Kasauli (a specialist center for the treatment of rabies.).

1127 George and Sarah sailed from Portsmouth on 20 April 1869 aboard HMS Crocodile. They arrived in Quebec, Canada on 6 May 1869. The only children with them were Edwin (13), Francis (11) and Alice (10).

This was the first emigration of unemployed Admiralty Dockyard Workers. The passengers for this trip were mostly from Woolwich and Portsmouth. In 1869 and 1870, there were five such trips from Portsmouth to Quebec carrying discharged Dockyard workers aboard British Troop ships.

This excellent article on "The Ship's List" website creates a "snap-shot" of the atmosphere at Portsmouth just before departure.
