Our 2026 Annual General Meeting will take place at the Victory Services Club, 63-79 Seymour Street, London, W2 2HF (Marble Arch tube), on
Saturday 31st October 2026 (2pm start). Speakers include:
- Edward Baldwin: Pharmacists of Jamestown: Inspired by the recovery of the “M George, Chemist” sign from the Horse Point dump last year (see SH Connection 39 of last December), Edward set out to discover who this person was, the location of his shop and those of his competitors. He already had an interest in glass bottles with “St Helena” on them and has been collecting photos of them and rubbings of their inscriptions for some years. Most of them were for medicines or other products prepared by the chemists, such as fizzy drinks.
- David Jeremiah: St Helena as an Inspiration for Creativity [DETAILS TO FOLLOW]
