Biography

Official assignee of Mordecai Palach[e], the owner of Berry Hill in Jamaica.

  1. Shown as of No. 8 Old Jewry in another unrelated bankruptcy case in which he also acted as Official Assignee in 1832, and then at No. 4 Pancras' Lane in 1833-1836 at least. Apparently unconnected with the Edward Edwards, wholesale tea dealer of 14 Abchurch Lane, who died 10/07/1859 and left £120,000 in personalty (although a man with the same name as Edwards' co-assignee, Francis Ceal, was also a London tea-dealer, of St Swithin's Lane).
