Hi dismo, please will you include my husband's 2x g grandfather on your planned data base.
Richard Murrell dob 1830 dies 1857 shoe maker from Brighton.
Sorry l haven't got more info at moment, but will research this guy as it would seem no one else does the same line of work. Rest of family are shop keepers & fishermen. K
