Paul Fitzmaurice, of the Little Ealing History Group, will describe the evolution of a fascinating book which will be on sale at the meeting. During 1815 to 1817 John Quincy Adams and his family lived in Little Ealing. In his diaries he recorded their life in Brentford, Gunnersbury and Ealing. The research has enabled the Group to describe the people and places he mentioned, providing a glimpse of local social life at that time.
