I ran across this today among our online petitions. Now, this is only a couple of pages from a Nov. 1860 petition from the parish of 'St. John's Berkeley' about reestablishing an old road, but the cool thing is the scribe is, it appears, a leftie, which you don't see much of back in the day. Can you tell who's right- or left-handed?

Is there a way to know if these petitioners got this old railroad line reestablished?
ReplyDeleteThis is petition for the reopening of a road, not a railroad. And at least immediately, the petition is not labeled with the outcome, as some of them are.
