* Note: 'No. 3 Hans Crescent, Sloane Square S.W.' was the then and longtime address of Geoffrey Askew's uncle Hugh Askew - since at least 1905, as so given in that and all subsequent editions of the London Post Office Directories, through to the year 1941.
** Note: "15 Grosvenor St. W.1." is given by the Post Office London Directory for 1930, as the home address of the Rev. Prebendary Francis Norman Thicknesse, who was almost certainly still living there in 1932 – on the day he was conducting the marriage of Lt-Cdr. Geoffrey Askew R.N. to Miss Joyce Moore. Therefore, we may assume she was his house guest there at the time. —From: 'London Metropolitan Archives; London, England; London City Directories' > Ancestry.com.
