Title: Richard Marple !838-1928
Post by: roland marple on Sunday 02 July 23 18:56 BST (UK)

Hi everyone, here is another tiny photo (sorry for that) of Richard Marple, of Cape Breton Island. He stood 5' 11" and was said to be very strong, and a very devout christian who read the bible daily.
I hope you can restore it as you have with the rest if the family photos I have submitted. One story of his strength is that he could lift a 300 pound anvil by the horn raising it off the block and making a complete turn before setting it down again.
