CORRESPONDENCE<br />
We have in our family a jug marked ‘Abraham <strong>Plant</strong> 1815’. This puzzles me as the closest Abraham<br />
we have was born in 1800 and why a commemorative type jugs on his 15 th birthday? Abraham’s father<br />
was John <strong>Plant</strong> who m Sarah Newbould in Sheffield parish church on the 17 th July 1786. He was<br />
buried at St John’s Sheffield, 10 th March 1844 aged 81 giving a dob of circa 1763. John’s origins are<br />
unsubstantiated (he can be confused with a Rotherham John b c1764). Dr John <strong>Plant</strong> sees a possibility<br />
that he may be descended from the eldest son, Robert (1727/1791) of the original Sutton-com-<br />
Duckmanion <strong>Plant</strong>s (Journal <strong>Chapter</strong> 7 p. 13) and this is where I have hit the proverbial ‘brick wall’.<br />
Could I ask if anyone has any further information in this area?<br />
