To court martial Tobias Furneaux after having been taken prisoner at Rhode Island and imprisoned for two years was a uncalled for. A terrible ordeal in itself. He should have received a hero's welcome home. My father worked with a man named Furneaux in Plymouth in the 1950s and 60s. I wonder if he was related to Tobias Furneaux. We lived not far from Stoke Damerel. My great grandparents were buried at Stoke Damerel Church.

Wow, what a history he had. So sad he died so young.
