John GRANTHAM, Smuggler of Horsham & Member of the Mayfield Gang 1721
« on: Monday 22 September 14 14:24 BST (UK) »
John GRANTHAM was a Horsham smuggler and member of Edward Jarvis' "Mayfield Gang". He was perhaps the one baptised in Horsham on 30 Mar 1687, married in 1713 and was still living in Horsham in 1721.

Does anyone know any more about his life or what happened to him? Where and when did he die and what happened to his two sons John & George; did they follow him into smuggling?
