Title: Prescot Cable Company Info?
Post by: Torwoodlee on Tuesday 23 December 14 21:42 GMT (UK)
Hello,

I was wondering if there are records of employees of this company that still exist?  I am looking for an employee who worked there from approximately the 1940s until the 1960s, his name was William Hayes.  I was wondering also if companies such as this would have had photos of their employees or archives kept somewhere?
Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you
Borderslass  :)

Are you referring to BICC?  It ceased trading in 1990 and the building is long since demolished

If you Google BICC Prescot there is a lot of info about it

They have a very well known Amateur Football Club started in 1884 - 8 years before Liverpool FC and still play today .
you may be lucky and find William Hayes played for them ??...if so he will be on record
even so - I would think that someone connected to the club will have worked there during 1940 -1960
