hello all, I have just purchaced a death certificate from the year 1923.it gives the place of death as CLAYBURY MENTAL HOSPITAL ILFORD ESSEX, but under the heading "occupation" it gives a second address as CEDAR HOUSE, WESTCOMBE PARK, GREENWICH. the mans name was JAMES MCLACHLAN and his profession was glass manufacturer. He died on 13 APRIL 1923. Could anyone out there throw any light on what that second address might have been as I have not been able to find out anything about it. I know this man spent many years in mental institutions so I thought that what was it might be but have found nothing. any help would be appreciated. thanks linda. member number 12378
