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]
