Wallace was born in 1831. He died on 4 August 1905.[1][2]
Research Notes
His name is sometimes recorded as Wallace John Massey, sometimes Wallace William John Massey, and sometimes as William Wallace John Massey.
He was to have married Charlotte Parren in 1851, but the marriage appears to have been called off.[3][4] He may also have married Mary Sorby Grantham in 1853 in Sheffield.[5]
The 1871 census appears to record him as John Garner.[6]
