Hi there. My mother tells me that there is a connection with her family (Matthews) and the Moyses Stevens family. I believe the link is through the marriage of Walter Matthews (b. 1868) who married late in life.
Does anyone know the history of this famous Florist to the Queen please?
Regards
Christine

I just typed in Moyses Stevens Florist and loads of hits on google. Have a try at it. There are quite a few detailing the court symbolism ect.

A google search informs that the company had humble beginnings which began in 1869 as a tiny shop , in Victoria, selling carnations to passing London "tofts".
