Henry Spurstowe

Categories: Friend / family

Henry Spurstowe

A London merchant and alderman.  Brother and heir to William. Made provison for the support and maintenance of the 'poor widows' for whom William had provided the almshouse. We'd guess that Henry died in or shortly before 1689, the year his son, also Henry, erected the plaque.
