1902 – Whitstable Parish Church Magazine – December

This is the fifth featured issue of the seven transcriptions made by Ken Sainsbury from issues of Whitstable Parish Church Magazines which he has kindly allowed us to include on this site.

Another two years have passed by.

Interestingly amongst the advertisers we see Court Bros., Furnishers of Canterbury. This must have been one one the first adverts for the company now simply known as Courts, the UK’s largest furniture retailer.

Unfortunately, for us, the Baptism listing no longer shows the names of the parents.
