Title: devoge and co
Post by: galore on Saturday 29 July 23 10:48 BST (UK)

I am looking for more info on this firm I worked at in the 60s. I originally worked at Wadsworth and co Droylsden but moved to Devoge later, then they moved to Droylsden. I found one photo on here some years ago but would love info or photos of either place ?

Probably no connection but there were people named Devoge of Italian origins, living near central Manchester ,Oldham Road area,
As with many Italian immigrants they were ice cream makers.
Rea,Granelli, Batchegalupo ,Pandolfo.
Any connection do you think?
