       Much has been written about events in the life
       of Charles Dickens but there may well be an
       occasional  discovery  of  something  new.  It
       possibly isn’t generally known that he was a
       shareholder in the Great Western Railway. All
       transaction  of  shareholdings  were  recorded,
       including those as a result of a death where the
       shares will have passed to a beneficiary and
       handled  by the executors of the estate. The
       GWR  record  shows  that  Georgina  and  John
       Forster (a friend) were the executors.
