Hello:

I am currently completing a book manuscript on Spanish Americans in London, and am particularly interested in the places in which they educated their children. I know that Iturbide left several of his kids in various schools (Ampleforth, convent at Taunton, Spetisbury House) and am trying to track down more information about them through the schools themselves. It would be more meaningful and significant for the book, however, if I could locate the papers of these children (if any have been left) and see if they left any impressions of their time in England in their own words.

Can you offer any assistance or suggestions? Thank you in advance.

Yours sincerely
