    I am looking at the history of a William Thomas, ropemaker, who left his business to sons William, John and George, having previously put the boat “George up for sale. His business was in Narrow Street, Limehouse. He died in 1803, describing in his will the machinery and tools for making ropes. Possibly from Wales or of Welsh descent, wife Mary. Judging by what was left in his will he seemed to be doing well, but it would appear that the sons went bankrupt in 1825 – and that they owned the ship “Friendship” which was supposed to be in bad condition with rot in the Gunwhales and elsewhere.
    Family possibly originally from Fishguard.
    By the way, I loved the Fu Manchu novels, even named my cat Fu Manchu
