Lizzie Bayliss - Printing Works
« on: Friday 26 May 06 19:00 BST (UK) »
Looking for Lizzie Bayliss (born circa 1882 in Nailstone, Leics).  Apparently she left Leicestershire sometime in the early 1900's and is supposed to have become the owner of a printing works in Nottingham.   I have her on the 1891 Census - she was living in Barton in the Beans, Leics. 

Any help greatly appreciated.

Hello Wendy,

there is an entry in Wright's Nottingham Directory of 1913-1914

Bayliss, Miss Lizzie, india rubber stamp maker (Watkinson and Bayliss)

The trade entry for the firm is under Rubber Stamp manufacturers and reads -

Watkinson and Bayliss Misses, rubber stamp makers, 71 Derby Road

Not a lot, but it gives you a lead :)
