Hi Cliff,

Many thanks for your generous offer. I'll be delighted to see transcripts (or scans) of your Follett family letters.
I will start looking at the personal message app to send you my e-mail address.

Regards,

Mike.

Hi,

I live in Topsham and at present am doing some research on the Follett family on behalf of Topsham Museum.  John Follett (1806-1866), who I believe wrote the letter in your possession was the brother of William Webb Follett, who was for some time the Attorney General. John was a Timber and Hemp merchant, who lived for some years in Mount Wear House, Countess Wear, Topsham.

I would be delighted to learn the contents of the Follett letter in your possession. If you wish to find a good home for it, Topsham Museum would be pleased to find one (with due attribution to yourself).

Best regards,

Jethro_William
