trades

  Hi I am never sure if I am on the right board or not, hopefully  am with this one, can anyone tell me if there are organisations or societies which can help with tracing people through their trade?   I have a shoemaker in Leeds and cannot track him down, also a butcher also in Yorkshire.  Thanks in advance regards Joan
