Hello geneie, Thanks for the information regarding Frederick Widmer. I was intending to sell the book on Ebay and it may be of interest to a descendant.

I have just come across this forum whilst researching an entry at the front of an old book that I have. The book is titled The Works Of Nathanial Hawthorne A Wonderbook For Girls and Boys.In the inner cover is a stamp that says London County Council. There is another stamp that says Dulwich, The Friern,Pecckham, LCC School. It says Awarded to Fred W Idmer,( or it could be Fred Widmer ) It was awarded for Excellent Conduct and is dated November 1906. It states the name of the head teacher as W. S. Desborough.There is another little piece of writing that says standard 11 ( 2 as in Roman numerals )
