John Fowles
Author and Honorary Curator of Lyme Regis Museum 1978 - 1988.
Social history is often called the "history of the people". Our choice here of individuals is somewhat eclectic, often originating from current research projects or enquiries to the Museum.
We have created and also included here a compilation of Lyme Regis Trade Directories covering the period between 1823 and 1903. This has proved invaluable in our "people researches".

Fielding, Henry & the wealthy heiress
