Narrative

JWG was wheeled to work in an invalid chair.
John Wesley fought in the Crimean War

However , I was able to send Mr Beer copies of two wills which threw quite a lot of light on relationships. The first was that of John Wesley Gliddon, who died in 1880, of Priest House, Williton. This referred to his wife Ellen Mary, his sons Horace John and Ernest Edward, his brothers Henry and Benjamin and his sister Phebe. He was clearly a comparatively young man, and this was confirmed in the will of his father, John Gliddon, in the following year, 1881. Here there are references to Henry, Benjamin and Phebe again, to grandson Horrace John again and to another grandson, Arthur Henry G. John's will also identifies "C" beyond doubt as his widow, Christiana, and the address in the letter as Capton House, at Stogumber.
