Profoundly deaf Ann Moss, widowed in Victorian Bradford, had 4 mouths to feed. Determined to provide for her children, Ann sent flattering poems as birthday gifts to Sir #TitusSalt. The thank you letters included a fiver, (worth £480 today). #WomensDay #InternationalWomensDay2026

There was no #CoverUp in 1840 when #TitusSalt’s father Daniel was stabbed in the ear & groin by his son-in-law Charles Smithies, whose pregnant wife Grace had fled to her parents’ home in Manningham. Bankrupt Charles was remanded in York Castle to appear at the Assizes.

#TitusSalt’s son, romantic Herbert Salt (1840-1912). Father of 2 born out of wedlock, he married their 20yrs younger mother, Elizabeth. Later widowed, Herbert wed her sister Margaret - she’d been bigamously married. All three are buried together in West Norwood #ValentinesDay
