Henry Morris Upcher. 



Henry Morris Upcher, born December 1839, wlio passed 

 away on April 6, 1921, at his picturesque seat at Sher- 

 ringhani, aged 82, was perhaps better known as an 

 all-round sportsman and shooter of game than as a 

 naturalist. Nevertheless, his predilection for wild animals, 

 which began before he went to Cambridge, was early, and 

 enthusiastic. The eldest of six brothers, only two of whom 

 have survived him, in 1869 Mr. Upcher married Maria, 

 only daughter of Canon Sparke of Feltwell, by whom he 

 had two sons and two daughters. In 1892 he settled 

 at Sherringham, where he contributed largely to the rise 

 and progress of that popular resort by the sea. 



An active supporter of all things connected with the 

 county of Norfolk, Mr. Upcher was seldom idle. He was 

 High SlierifE in 1899, D.L. and J. P., was elected to the 

 County Council as alderman in 1901, and served on the 

 committees for the Protection of Wild Birds and Eastern 

 Sea Fisheries, besides assisting the Sea-Coast Erosion Com- 

 missioners and working for the Urban Council. Needless
