Research Notes
- First name originally Chas was incorrect. Name is Creswell Friend. Chas may have been his nick name.
- In 1881Census an E F Millican born 1860 Alston was a boarder in Bird Street Marylebone Middlesex. He was a draper’s assistant.[10] In my opinion this is Creswell Millican, the E being incorrect. I have seen the original on Findmypast Thomson-4079
- called Chas F Millican in 1901 census
