Hi, I am conducting family research and am trying to track down any information regarding my Grandmother who is recoded as being ‘Secretery to Dental Surgeon” in Bristol in 1945. I am just wondering if you have any historical records relating to her?
Her name was Mollie (or spelt Molly) Jeannette Brighouse or Ladd.
Thankyou for your time
Dear Kylee,
Thank you for your message. We do not hold historical records ourselves. It may be worth trying the Wellcome Library or perhaps the British Dental Association.
Best wishes,
Lee Coppack
