Mike Rendell

Photo of MikeThis blog has grown out of the research which has gone into my book The Journal of a Georgian Gentleman. It derives from the huge volume of papers which I have inherited from Richard Hall - my 4 x Great grandfather - ordinary everyday papers such as shopping lists, jottings on the back of tea packets, as well as diaries, journals and inventories. This extraordinary pile of 18th century ephemera has enabled me to write up my ancestor's life story - it is the world of a man who originally had a haberdashery shop on One London Bridge and who then retired to the Cotswolds to become a farmer. His grandparents had lost a fortune - he married one! Lots more information can be found on my website at www.mikerendell.com
