HI Peter,

a wild guess, but could he possibly have been Welsh and his name John Ap Richard? I think that was an early version of the name Prichard/Pritchard, and Cressage does look fairly near the border with Wales in my road atlas.

Just a thought

Roger

EDIT: This confirms what I thought about Ap Richard
