Dr John Shortt - surgeon general - died in 1889 aged 77. So possibly an uncle or cousin of JFS

JFS's uncle John died aged 16.  His only Shortt uncle was a Jonathon Shortt who died 20/6/1855.

So cousin seems more likely.
Looking for relatives of John Cowham Parker (1773-1841), mayor of Hull & had 2 wives, Ann Goodhand & Elizabeth/Eliza Speedings.  And information of John Goodhand Parker, William Bilbie Parker, Henry Watson Parker, Marion Parker (nee Rorauer), Wilfred Watson Parker & Frances Charlotte Mary Purssell (& her parents Alfred Purssell & Ellen Ware, and grandparents Roger & Charlotte Purssell).

Also Maternal line - Hodgson, Bacon, Stapylton, Slingsby, Percy, Mortimer.
