Re: Stephenson
In Response To: Re: Stephenson ()

If you can wait for 2 or 3 weeks I should be back in Peel and given some decent weather (mostly sadly lacking around the new year when I was feeling lucky my roof stayed on) I will take a digital photo (I have others also in the queue)
However the 1898 examiner annual has Mrs Stevenson at Jurby school (this is the earliest I have) - the 1894 Brown's directory does not have a list of teachers, usually placing them under each parish - no Stevenson is noted in Jurby however.
The 1889 directory also doesn't have a list of teachers and it also doesn't mention Stevenson's under Jurby
(this could just be the fact that Jurby is miles from anywhere and teaching was a low status profession)
