    Cliveden Ferry 1885, Charles Curtis
    Charles Curtis was the ferryman in the 1860s through late 1880s.

  • Notes  Married:
    • John Davis and Ann Curtis witnessed the marriage. Two years later, [couple:given] were probably living at Fisher Row because that's the address on their second child's birth certificate. William Howkins, Mary Ann's brother was most likely managing the Running Horses by that time and was living there with his family in 1851.
