Phillipson & Proudfoot
« on: Wednesday 18 July 12 20:29 BST (UK) »
Hello, Can anyone tell me if there is a way of finding details of a family business.

My Fathers brother. John Phillipson was in partnership with a Mr Proudfoot in Carlisle after WW2. I know it was running until his death in 1959.

His only daughter and wife passed on soon after as did my own parents so no one to enlighten me,

Many thanks Rosiesgal

She's in her 80's maybe had something more pressing or just simply forgot all about it.
