If you will check the link for "Not Strictly Hamilton, Hamilton
County, TX" at
https://sites.rootsweb.com/~txhamilt/main.htm
and go to the bottom of the list,
there will be a link for the Value of Money.
At the bottom of that article is a link to an
Inflation Calculator.
Unfortunately it is only for American money--not English pounds.
