Snippets: Sugar
Initially ordered by Guy Howard Martineau a scion of the Martineau Sugar plantation family. Family members included Harriet Martineau (1802/1876) author & an early female sociologist who campaigned against the slave trade within the sugar plantations much to her family's dismay! A hundred years later Sydney Martineau (1863/1945) won a team Silver medal in Fencing at the 1912 Stockholm Olympics; in the 21st Century we meet who is undoubtedly the best known family member – Catherine. Duchess of Cambridge! Guy Martineau's interest in cars stems from when Howard (British Racing Driver) & David Martineau. acquired the French firm of Moteurs Salmson in the 1930s in order to produce engines for light aircraft; the production of Salmson cars ceased with the outbreak of WWII. By 1954 B26KM was with its second owner Ian MacGilchrist Jackson a Harley Street Gynaecologist who upon his death in 2002 left an estate of some £1. 00. 00. By the late 1970s B26KM was acquired by Roger Deer of Iver who had the Bentley MK VI converted by Chris Lawrence into a Special.
