  • Notes 
    • See separate article about the food wholesaling Partnership in the years up to 1918.

      Looking at a random selection of the Electoral Rolls, we find Alfred and Annie, along with Horace and Leonard at "Purbrook", Clifford Road in Autumn 1925, and in London in 1925, with Leonard in the list of Butchers, and on his own as a Poulter. There are no electoral rolls available after 1930.

      In 1930, he is at 60, Clifford Road, with Anna, Muriel and Horace.

      I cannot find him in the 1939 Register, but in Nov 1939 (having been vice president), he was elected President of the Portsmouth Livery Club. The article gives a number of interesting facts:-
      a) in 1920 elected a member of the London City Corporation for the Farringdon Without ward
      b) since 1935 he is Deputy for the North side of the ward
      c) Chairman of various CoL committees
      d) Technical Advisor to the Ministry of Food during WW1
      (Full details in separate document)

      A number of websites imply he was out of the country from about 1934 to 1956 when he disembarked at Southampton. This seems most unlikely. But his arrival in Southampton on 25/3/1956, he is described as married, a merchant, travelling 1st cls. The voyage appears to have been a round trip, so maybe 9 months or so. His home address is given as 60, Clifford Road, where he died 5 years later. There is a record of a passport application for AS Juniper in 1903; it could be him.

      In addition he was a Lieutenant in the City of London (I think elected annually) in the years 1935 to 1938 and then in 1948, according to copies of the London Gazette which I have accessed, so maybe in other years too.

      In his will he left about £43600 to Horace WELLS, a farmer, Leonard JUNIPER, a wholesale distributer and Norman Charles Russell NASH, an accountant (I assume he is not related to Henry NASH who married Mary HILLBECK.....)
