The Wastel Brisco for whom John Morse made the Accounts Produce returns 1757-1764 for Cumberland Valley has been inferred to be the same man as Wastel Brisco of Jamaica and Wimpole Street. The path to ownership has not yet been established, but the identification is cemented by the presence of Peter Campbell as joint-owner and then Mrs Deborah Brisco as owner: Wastel Brisco of Jamaica and Wimpole Street had a stepson named Peter Campbell, the son of his wife Deborah Campbell nee Woodstock. |
