Thomas Wale
Thomas Wale was a Cambridgeshire gentleman born at Risby, Suffolk on the 7 September 1701 and died in 1796. He is notable for having left a significant quantity of documents collated throughout his life which constituted the book ''My Grandfather's Pocket Book''. His documents provide a unique insight into 18th-century English life. The Oxford Dictionary Of National Biography refers to him as "an eighteenth-century squire". ==Background==
He was the son of Margaret Sparke of Risby and Gregory Wale. His personal papers were sealed in a cupboard in his house and only discovered a century later when the property was destroyed. These papers form the basis of the book "My Grandfather's Pocket Book", published by his Grandson.
