Prinny’s Tailor

Many thanks to Kelly McDonald for this blog in Two Teens in the Time of Austen

Two Teens in the Time of Austen

Charlotte Frost (you will find fascinating items via her Twitter feed!) mentioned to me a wonderful WordPress blog on Louis Bazalgette (1750-1830), tailor to George The Prince of Wales.

additional items to peruse on the same subject:

• Number One London
• the original blog on Posterous [may not be available beyond end April 2013]
• Prinny’s Taylor on Facebook
• Prinny’s Taylor on Twitter

Author Charles Bazalgette has been researching his ancestor for over fifteen years – turning up (among other items) original bank records — alas: with Coutts, rather than Goslings & Sharpe.

as a P.S., you can read Charles Bazalgette’s review of Charlotte Frost’s biography of Sir William Knighton — who was uncle to Smith&Gosling in-laws Richard Seymour (husband to Fanny Smith) and Frances Seymour (wife to Spencer Smith).
