The Orme Relationship 

        Aaron Orme is my 4xG Grandfather, Margaret Walmsley was his 3rd wife and together they had 4 children, all boys. Aarons occupation is given as a fustian manufacturer in Manchester, England. Fustian is a hard wearing fabric of cotton mixed with flax or wool. 

        Of the sons, William was an artist, Daniel was an engraver and painter of miniature portraits, Edward was a book publisher and property speculator and Robert was a clerk or solicitor for the East India Co. ORME Sq. in London is named after Edward who was actually the 13th child of Aaron.

Please note:       
        I did not research this information but I am very grateful to the person who did. I hope to publish their name so that they receive the recognition for the time and effort they have put into their projects and also as a token of my gratitude for passing that knowledge onto others.
