I see there were 16 crumpet makers, including Edith Green Adopted of Chorlton Lancashire.
One Elephant Keeper, also in Chorlton.
One Muffin Man.
One Clod Hopper.
And I'm delighted to report that 72 year old Mr Leslie of Petworth was Loopy.

There were 5 Secret Springers.
Did they lurk around and spring out on people when they were least expecting it? Sadly, no, they made watch springs
