That's a pity, Paul, I thought we might have a connection - I have a treeful of Malletts :-) |

How funny - another coincidence. My mum worked for William Willets in the late 1940's! No connection though. |

I've had a quick look in the 1921 phone book; there are a few Mallet(t)s in London, but none in Sloane Square. |

Are you quite sure it was Mallett? There was an auctioneer's called Wm Willett Ltd at the Willett Building in Sloane Square. |

Could one possibility be Mallett Antiques? Their current address is New Bond Street, but they have been in existence as a business since the 1860s. |

What year? Have you tried Historical Directories?(1800s to about 1915) |

When my great grandfather died he was working for a company called Malletts (may be spelled otherwise) in Sloane Square, London. That's all I know. I've tried Googling it but I can't find out anything about the company or what was their line of business. Any ideas? |
