1820 Settler Places in Britain and Éire

In many cases, particularly in cities like London and Bristol, many buildings with settler ties no longer exist. In such cases I have tried to include historical pictures where possible, and where I have not been able to take pictures myself I have added pictures from www.geograph.co.uk, which can be used under a Creative Commons Licence. Where the photographer’s name appears as a clickable link followed by a CC BY-SA 2.0 reference, the original photo can be viewed together with other photographs of the surrounding area.

The pictures are currently arranged by county for England, Scotland, Ireland and Wales, with separate sections for the cities of Birmingham, Bristol, Dublin, Edinburgh, Liverpool, London, Manchester and Nottingham. London has been further sub-divided into Boroughs so as not to have too many pictures in one file. The pictures appear as small icons with a brief title. Clicking on them will reveal a larger picture with text explaining the link to one or more settlers and a credit to the photographer. Clicking on the + sign will further enlarge the picture to full screen (ESCape to exit full screen), and the photographs can all be downloaded from the site.

St.Budock Parish Church (to left of porch). Grave of Peter RENFREE (1715-1774) and his father, also Peter. Peter RENFREE and Wilmot STEPHENS, who married in St.Budock on 7 January 1739, were the great-grandparents of the settler Joseph RICHARDS, and the grandparents of James Jay EVA.
The inscription reads:
Sacred to the Memory of Peter RENFREE, who departed this life the 27th day of May 1758, aged 70 years. Also in memory of Peter RENFREE, son of the above, who departed this life the 19th day of June 1774, aged 59 years. Also to the memory of John RENFREE, son of the above, who departed this life the 27th day of December 1818, aged 65 years.
St.Luke Chap.XXIII Verse 27. Weep not for me but weep for yourselves and for your children.
