Opis

This book chronicles the forgotten history and story of the Shorto family of Exeter. The family came to Exeter in 1809 and remained until the 1930s, with the last of the Shorto family retiring to Devon where he died in 1997. Notably the family contribution to education was extensive in the areas where they lived and worked. Perhaps the high point of the family history was the late Victorian era when George Roberts Shorto served as the Town Clerk of Exeter.
