Not sure if I am posting this in the correct section...appologies if not.
Any information on the Tate and Lyle Company greatly appreciated,as my Husbands family connects into the Lyle component.
Cheers.

Hi Dawn,
From a Google search, found this;
http://www.tasteandsmile.co.uk/TasteAndSmile/Products/TateAndLyleStory/default.htm

You could always contact them to see if they have an archivist who might be able to help.

LOVE your Golden Syrup  ;D

My great great grandfather was Sir Henry Tate
My late father worked for T&L most of his life
There are a few books on the history of the firm - found via google
One example
