Robert Harvey: An Overview
The information I have about Robert comes from the following sources:
1. Information supplied to me by Carla Woodworth Lynas and based on
the 'Original Genealogical Collections, by the late Lieut. Col.
Robert John Harvey of Thorpe'. This is mentioned in a
publication called 'Walter Rye, Memoir Bibliography and Catalogue of
of his Norfolk Manuscripts in the Norwich Public Libraries' by Geo.
A. Stephen published in 1929? by the Public Libraries Committee,
Norwich. Original documents in the Norfolk Archives.
2. The Norwich Churches website
3. His portrait recorded in the book 'Portraits in Norfolk Houses' by
Prince Frederick Duleep Singh, Vol 2, undated but published around
1928. Rainthorpe Hall, The Property of Sir Charles Harvey Bart,
6th August 1907. Page 172.
Robert was Sherriff of Norwich in 1784 and Mayor in 1787.
He was very wealthy and when he died he left his money spread out
among numerous relatives.
