William Richard Cornell (1840-1924)

Born: May 10, 1840, Cambridge, Cambridgeshire. His occupation was that of Carpenter.
Married: Ann Clark, July 17, 1862. Ann was born on March 29, 1841 in Cambridge.  She was a year younger than he, and had been brought up on Mill Lane, a street existing in medieval Cambridge, but only a quarter of a mile from Union Road and Queen Street. Her father was a maltster. William Richard and Ann set up their first home in the same house as his mother and brothers, and there their first child, William Frederick, was born.  There were five children altogether, Willlam, Nina Anne, Lucy, Eleanor (Nellie),  and Edwin Philip (Ted). Nina Anne died an infant and Lucy died at the age of 9.  The family members were staunch non-conformists, following the Baptist precepts of Charles Spurgeon

At the time of the 1871 census, the family was living at Kenley, Coulsdon, but moved to 7 Upland Road, East Dulwich, sometime after 1871. East Dulwich was then a pretty village on the outskirts of London. It is now part of London's sprawl, but still a pleasant place to live. No. 7 was one of a row of shops with living accommodation above.  They later moved to 32 Upland Road, which was a small terraced house.  Kelly's Trade Directory of 1896 showed William Richard as a carpenter and Annie Cornell as a haberdasher.  William Richard pursued his calling as a carpenter and builder, travelling extensively over Surrey and Sussex.  In 1891 the family was shown as living at 32 Upland Road and with them lived a six year-old foster child named Ellen Sims, who was born in Melbourne, Australia.  William Richard's  business was advertised as W.R. Cornell, Shop Front and Office Fitter, 32 Upland Road, East Dulwich.

At the turn of the century, William Richard and Ann retired to Pevensey, Sussex. There they lived in a two-storey whitewashed cottage by the sea. Ann operated a sweet store in Pevensey. In 1904 Richard invented and patented a new type of life belt.

• Dulwich Newspaper Article (Unknown name and date) A New Life Belt. A Dulwich Invention
  
• Another inventor has arisen in Dulwich.  He is a well-known resident of 37 year' standing. Mr. W. R. Cornell, of 32 Upland Road, first conceived the idea of his life-saving invention during a casual conversation about a wreck at sea, where lives were lost.  He set to work, and the result is a new life-saving belt.  Although called a belt, it is in reality a collarette, which is easily fitted round the neck, and can be worn without inconvenience or attracting any attention.
  The old-fashioned life-belts we know as cumbersome coils of enclosed corks; but Mr. Cornell's invention is of a totally different character, and much more effective.
  Instead of corks, it is made of air-balls or tubes enclosed in serge or other woven material.  It has been tried by Mr. J. Hutton of Brighton, who has honoured Mr. Cornell's invention by a very flattering testimonial - Mr. Hutton being a well known and highly-honoured Brightonian who has saved 25 persons from drowning.  He is the recipient of the Royal Humane Society's Medal and other testimonials of high value.  His endorsement of Mr. Cornell's invention is, therefore, proof of its utility.
  The total weight of this wonderful invention is less than 20 ounces and it will float a 7 lb. weight, which is the standard of the Board of Trade.  It occupies very little room.  It can be worn under or over a  greatcoat or a lady's cloak.  It can be used for bathing, and is a great help to those learning to swim, giving confidence as well as security.
  The inventor claims that it is much more effective in saving life than any of the old life-buoys now in use.  A Hastings life-boat man said the old cork belt cuts the arms when rowing; and a Margate life-boat man said he would rather go out without a cork life-belt than with it.
  One of the belts can be seen at the Dulwich Post Office, 183 Lordship Lane.  Those interested are cordially invited to have a look at it.

Ann died on June 19, 1920, William Richard on September 13, 1924.  Both are buried in the Pevensey Churchyard.
