  Source: Martyn Wellman: http://trees.ancestry.ca/tree/9771120/person/-746504892?ssrc= Obituary said he was the oldest leather dyer in Yeovil, aged 88. Retired in 1930 after 55 years' service for Whitby Bros, glove makers. Started work at age 11; 10 years in Royal Navy from age 16; then returned to his old firm for 50 more yrs. At time of death was living at 'Oaktree', 161 West Coker Road, Yeovil. His son Alfred lived there subsequently. Mr. Wellman had been a Widower for ten years & leaves 3 daughters & 2 sons. Principal mourners were his son & daughter-in-law, Mr. & Mrs. Alfred Wellman, Mr. Edward Wellman & Mr. Ronald Wellman (grandsons).
  You can also see a photo of him here: http://wellmanchainey.tribalpages.com/family-tree/wellmanchainey/569/7/Alfred-Wellman-Family Described by grandson Bert Wellman as a ginger-haired fighter and drinker, and a deserter from the Navy - very evident from his navy record, which shows he was sentenced to the cells numerous times. In 1876 he was in a Somerset court admitting to a charge of desertion from the Navy in Sept 1875 at Leghorn (Livorno), Italy, while on HMS Cruiser. A census record of 1881 also finds him in Dorchester prison. In later years, he kept a poultry farm and exhibited prize-winning specimens.
