Rev. G. F. Fessey Redditch Heritage
The Man
There is a newspaper cutting which states:
“In 1889 a painting of George F. Fessey had been painted by Mr J. Bunker, commissioned
by Mr R. S. Bartleet just before the death of the reverend, which was a good likeness of
him and this was presented to the vicar and the church wardens of St Stephen’s.”
The picture opposite is in the Vestry of St. Stephen’s Church but is it George Fessey? It
looks “young” for an 82 year-old.
On the next two pages are copies of two paintings which were in St. George’s Church.
The first is of Rev. George Fessey and the second is of a scroll presented to him on his
retirement.
