    I wonder if you have any information about violinists who played with the Orchestra 1910 - 1921
    My Grandmother Mabel Constance Payne PECK (Mabel PECK) played in one of the London Orchestras around this time. I have contacted the Archivist at the London Symphony Orchestra and she suggested that she may have played with the Queen's Hall Orchestra.
    I have a newspaper article from Hendon Middlesex, where I know from the 1911 census she lived, which says that Mabel Peck won a violin competition in about 1903 aged 10. Mabel died in 1936 aged 43 and I know very little else apart from having a violin I believe belonged to her which I also used to play.
    Hoping you may be able to help

    I knew the family in the seventies (Ron, Julie, Marcus and Trudi.) We spent a lot of time together.
