Dorothy House Hospice have an ebay page where they post some items received into their shops, I think other charity shops nearer to you may have as well.  There is quite a lot of sheet music for sale on ebay

Somerset Lookup Requests / Re: Ann Fortt Nee Bishop Brick wall

I was only doubting the entry as I had a similar problem with one of my trees yesterday - census gives an age of 85 which would tie in with a baptism I have -burial/death the same year says 94  ;D
I know it is the correct person, her husband died 2 years earlier at the same address and his age was 85 - I don't have his baptism/birth.  This was in 1841 and their last child was bn 1805  ::)

Bath Chronicle 17th February 1842 mentions the theft of a door from a property in Odd Down that belongs to Mr Fortt of Milsom Street  ;D

What surprises me is that there is no mention in the Bath papers of John or Ann's death or wills for them

ADDED
Maybe that is Ann at Odd Down and the enumerator mis read her age.  It does say N for bn in County  :)

I read "grocer" also!

HO107  1480  169 9 - this page 2 x "None" - the occpn. has not been transcribed.

Underneath the second None on that reference is Greengrocer and the G is nothing like the first letter of the query in this post  ;D

I think it reads None
