He designed his own heiroglyphic code. Is thre a photo of him anywhere Ta Sean
Jonathan Saunders Posted 13 June , 2005 Posted 13 June , 2005 If your interest is because he was local to you ie. your both from Barton uon Humber then try your record office as a local newspaper may have carried a photo and short obituary following his death.
