Group

Early & devoted workers in the Chelsea Temperance Society. Parents of Robert. We found a McCurrey grave in Brompton (pt1) cemetery which we believe holds Margaret, James and their son Robert. If this is correct then their details are:

Margaret: buried 1866 aged 71,
James: buried 1881 aged 81,
Robert: buried 1869 aged 41.
