Anne has recently added a number of Ross Warks Bronte post cards. Queries & Contributions Artist J. Weykamp Mike & Lesley Stott own a painting by J. Weykamp and have been trying to find out who he or she was. We have a scan of a painting by Weykamp (TTOIDED0018) which is a scene of horses and men working on a road that is called "Pulling Stone for Trafalgar Road". The painting they have is one of an old woman asleep in a chair. The signatures look identical. Can anyone help? Trafalgar Post Offices Irene Saunders sent in this response to the question about the Traflagar Post Office. When he took over the general store at Postville in 1925 my uncle, Leslie Bradley took over the job of postmaster as well. It was always called the Trafalgar Post office and was at the rear of the store. I don't know the name of the former post master. You'd have to go to the registry office to find that. I know that Uncle Leslie's pay was not as much as the former postmaster because they said he didn't have the experience.. 2
