Re: Rose Kerr - home on the Isle of Wight

Sorry for not replying earlier. Traumatic period up to Christmas.

The "home" was only for the summer as they spent the rest of the year in the South of France. The Royal Yacht Squadron will not conduct any archive search unless I agree to pay up front at about £50 - £100 an hour. They also stated it would probably have his London residence as "home" not the Cowes one. I have tried all the sailing sources I can think of but to no avail. I hoped it would be in his diary entries for those periods. I have sent emails to some of Rose's descendents but received no replies??? I will keep trying! Barry
