Other work in London: a bronze armillary sphere at Gray’s Inn. Liveryman of both the Worshipful Company of Clockmakers and of the Worshipful Company of Scientific Instrument Makers. Married to George White, Consultant Keeper of the Clockmakers’ Museum at Guildhall, who was so helpful when we contacted him about the Abeling plaque.

Our colleague, Andrew Behan, informs us that she was born on 30 August 1958, the elder daughter of Kazimierz Migdal and Franciszka Leduchowicz. Her sister, Barbara Migdal was born in 1960.

Electoral registers from 2003 to 2006 show her listed at Grey Lodge, Old Bix Road, Bix, Henley-on-Thames, RG9 6BY.

As she is married to Sir George White she is technically Lady White.
