Does anybody know if the Royal Archives with details of employees are available on line? In the early 1900's a lady called Lillian nee Waldman, worked at Buckingham Palace. I was told as a lady-in-waiting, but I'm not sure if she was as senior as that! ; -) Hard to say. Lillian was married to Hyman/Herman Berg/Burg/Bury...but that surname was used on arrival to Ellis Island. Not sure what their surname was in the U.K. Two of their daughters were born there, Janie/Jane/Jenie late 1904-early 1905, and Rose around 1902. They lived near to Buckingham Palace. Lillian was also known as Etta Leah or Leah. I would think that if they weren't on the same side as BP, they could have been across the river around Lambeth way. Hyman/Herman had what was described as a 'limey' accent..I think he probably sounded more Cockney..so East End, East of London etc.
Bit of a long shot I know!
