The pianist Vera Margolies died On This Day 30 December 1959 at Onslow Court Hotel, SW7

She was the daughter of a Russian pianist, Isidor Margolies and was born in Russiia. She studied at the Royal Academy of Music winning the Sterndale- Bennet Prize in 1899

She lived at 55 Tierney Road and performed locally at "Deerhurst Hall" Coventry Park. 

The Streatham News reported
"A very fine young pianist Vera Margolies, also appeared and played Rubinstein's Staccato Study and Liszt's Rhapsodie Hongroise. The very names of these difficult sleections will indicate that Miss Vera Margolies who is apparently in her early teens is a past mistress in her chosen instrument"
