th Pape

The name 'th Pape' does not correspond to any known author; it is likely a misspelling or truncation of Thomas Pape (1872–1970), a schoolmaster and key historian of North Staffordshire who authored local history books and articles from 1928–1940[1]. Thomas Pape was not primarily a literary author but a historian and archaeologist focused on Newcastle-under-Lyme and surrounding areas[1].
