The Nuttall entry says solely:

Creswell, Sir Creswell, judge, born in Newcastle; represented Liverpool in Parliament; was raised to the bench by Peel, and, on the establishment of the Divorce Court, was in 1858 named first judge (1794-1863).

So where has the rest of the info come from? Google doesn't yield much.Cutler 00:32, 8 August 2007 (UTC)Reply

Mother's name edit

How is mother's name Dorothea nee Cresswell, when she married Easterby. Is the explanation that she had previously been married to someone else? ROxBo (talk) 11:07, 3 March 2009 (UTC)Reply
