Tod and Sons Aerated Water
« on: Monday 23 March 09 17:51 UTC (UK) »
Hi

Does anyone know of or remember the David Tod and Sons lemonade factory in Kirkcaldy?
I think the dates were 1930's to 1980's.

Thanks

Hi Diddy

Thanks for the link. I tried it but it refers to the Ewing family from Dundee.  The Tod lemonade factory was definately in Kirkcaldy.

I could not find anything on google. 
I would be grateful if anyone knows of the Tod factory.

Regards

The link I gave relates to the same family and starts with how they originated in Fife. They is some useful background info there.

Hi Diddy

My cousin and I have both had another look at the Ewing Family link and can't find any connection to our Tod family lemonade factory in Kirkcaldy.  Google was not much help either.

Can you give me the links you have found as I am not having any luck!
Sorry to be a pest!

Thank you

Hi Rik

I don't actually know where the factory was in Kirkcaldy, that's why I tried this board to see if anyone remembered it.  Unfortunately I have had no luck so far.

My immediate Tod's are no longer in Kirkcaldy. David Tod c1900 moved to Aberdour when he retired and his sons left in the 1950's.  I have just recently started looking at this side of the family so have a lot to uncover (hopefully!!)
