Hello Margaret, My old school Purbrook Park was a grammar school, have you thought of that? Best wishes, Sally in Rutland. -----Original Message----- From: margaret jessup [mailto:maggie2lo@tiscali.co.uk] Sent: 18 August 2005 20:00 To: ENG-HAM-PORTSMOUTH-GOSPORT-L@rootsweb.com Subject: [PORTSMOUTH-GOSPORT] Portsmouth schools Dear List, Family legend has it that Henry Jessup was Head Boy of Portsmouth Grammar School round about 1910/15. The archivist of the school can find no record of the fact. I am not quite convinced. However there is another alternative and that is Gosport Grammar School. Can anyone tell me where I can find records of both Portsmouth and Gosport Grammar Schools for this period. Any help would be most appreciated. Thank you, Margaret Jessup. ==== ENG-HAM-PORTSMOUTH-GOSPORT Mailing List ==== Visit the knightroots website at www.knightroots.co.uk ============================== Search Family and Local Histories for stories about your family and the areas they lived.
