Lancashire Lookup Requests / Re: Wigan CLOUGH Robert c1787
« on: Wednesday 27 August 14 12:33 BST (UK)  »
Hi, I don't know if it's of interest you you, but amongst my collection of Wigan ephemera I have an entire (complete letter) sent on behalf of Robert Clough & Sons, Ashton near Wigan in 1823.

It appears to be an invoice of some description, to a William Crook of Burnley who I think was a mill owner there.

The writer seems to have been an employee of theirs by the name of Edward Aspinall.

I don't seem to be able to add a scan as an attachment for some reason, but if you'd like the image, please drop me a line.

Hope this is of some interest.

Kind regards, Andy

Hi SC,

Thanks for your prompt reply.

I'm not researching the Holland family as such - I collect items associated with Wigan and always Google the details whenever I buy something new.

Kind regards,

Andy

Hi SC,

I was researching a 1905 postcard I have in my collection and Google found your old request for information about Tom Holland from Wigan.

The card I have dates from 1905 and is signed:-

From Mr & Mrs Tom Holland, Glenroy, Wigan 1905.

I know this is quite a bit later than the Tom Holland you are looking for but possibly it's the same family ?

Kind regards,

Andy
