John Russell

Their story

John Russell took responsibility for managing his widowed mother Martha’s farming affairs under a recorded family agreement. In return, she agreed to convey half Jackson’s farm for £10. The deed abstract identifies him as William Russell’s son; the agreement’s precise original date needs clarification before a full biography.
