Fussell all

[nia]

Does anyone have any links to Robert Fussell born approx 1810 marries Betty Eliza Young in 1830 in Corsham
he died in bedminster in 1849.

He is listed as ironmonger on the parish marriage record and on the 1841 census was he related to the Fussells ironmongers of Wells ?

Does anyone know where I might look
thanks

The village I live in used to be the site of the Fussells Iron Works which is now ruined (although very pretty) and situated in the valley of the River Frome between Mells and Frome. I know little about the family, but I know that some local people published a book on them - I've found a link on Amazon.co.uk -

and there is also this:

Also search 'fussell iron works' in google images and there are some pictures of the ruins in the valley.

I hope that will help you find some information! I won't be
