    This could be bad news for anyone with a QPR 1882 tattoo!

    That's when St Jude's were founded so it doesn't make any difference in the bigger picture. I think this discovery just makes City of Westminster council look silly...

    What about 1914, then we can celebrate 100 years by getting promotion again

    Thanks Bushman - Those links make for some very interesting reading since my family inhabited those environs in that time period with many Paddington, Willesden, church & cemetery related references.

    I have an old notebook that documents important church & family events occurring in the period 1870 -1895, with mentions of Christ Church, St. Mary's Church and the Missions.

    Unfortunately no mention of football matches, but I ponder if my Great Grandfather, who died aged just 31 on Dec 31, 1890 was involved with any of those church mission football teams?
