Re: William Fearnley and Gutta Percha

Hi Maureen

I have this book but it only mentions 'Guttapercher' twice very briefly as being
around in 1860/1870's time frame on pages 11 & 23. No gang members are named.

The book is mainly about the gangs in the 1920's and it is an excellent read.

Some information here

Re: William Fearnley and Gutta Percha

Hi Vicky

Thank you for the information. I am trying to find the connection with the prosecution of a William Fearnley in 1851 where it was stated that he was part of the Gutta Percha gang.

Once again thank you for the very interesting information.

Maureen
