Devon Lookup Requests / Re: FISHER family of Tiverton
« on: Tuesday 11 May 10 14:00 BST (UK) »
I live in part of Elm House, Tiverton. The former residence of Stephen Fisher.
The original Regency House has now been sub divided into 2 properties and according to the 1911 census had 14 rooms.
I have done a little research as i was interested in the former residents of the property.
Stephen Fisher was the accountant to the Heathcoat Factory, which used to make lace but now manufactures precision engineered fabrics. The main living rooms and bedrooms look down the valley to the factory as a constant reminder of his employer!
I was also intrigued that Stephen's son Frederic Bazley was Thomas Hardy's Physician, in Dorchester, Dorset.
If you would like a photo of the property, please let me know.
