I spotted this postcard on eBay this while looking for COTTONs on the
island: <

(or < http://tinyurl.com/9o9pf >.) It is easy to see how Wootton could be
mistakenly read as Cotton.

Shame, I would like to have found a creek named after my COTTONs:
William COTTON married Ann PRESSOM in 15 Oct 1717, Freshwater.

Cheers
Elmo.
