Erection date: /3/1888
Erected in memory of S. L. Swaab Esq. His knowledge like a spring of refreshing water flowed ever during life for the relief of the suffering.
The MDFCTA site says it was erected in March 1888 and was the gift of Mrs Swaam (surely a mistype for Swaab) and cost £115.0.0.
Site: West London Free School (2 memorials)
W6, King Street, 241, Palingswick House
From Fulham SW6: "Palingswick House was originally built around 1849 as a family home, but over the years has been used as an orphanage and workhouse, the orphanage's superintendent’s house, a school, children’s home, hostel for diabetic children and a community resource centre." The West London Free School was set up in 2011 and moved here a few years afterwards following a planning application.
Swaab died at 266 King Street, a short distance to the west, on the north side of this road.
