Gas Light & Coke Company London 1915

Hello,

No problem this is an ongoing offer.  I have done a quick scan for you and attached it.

If you would like a better quality scan (there is another similar photo which is better quality in another section of the book) please PM me with your email and I will do that for you.

Hope that helps.

Regards
Biker

This is absolutely unbelievable as I never thought I would find anything more about Fred and had given up thinking I would find more. I am sure this must be my man. Date of death and regiment match and I have  a birthdate of Oct 1892 where they say 4th Oct 1892. I have only one photo of him in civvies probably taken some years earlier which doesn't look exactly like this new photo, but is near enough. I don't know how to PM you and so am posting this reply. I would be very grateful if you could let me have the higher resolution scan if possible. Very many thanks once more.

Hello biker...
I am new to the site.But have you any details of my Father Snow Blagburn Tallantyre and my uncle William Vivian Shannan who both worked at the Gas Light & Coke Company and took out patents on their behalf.

Chamber.

Hello chamber

Sorry but neither of those people are mentioned in the volume I have.

If you haven't already you might consider contacting or visiting Newham Archives.  Here is a link for further information

Good luck with that

Hello Biker
Hope I'm not to late for a request, have just found your posting regarding the Gas Light & Coke Company.

Is there anything on my Grandfather Rifleman Henry Alfred Connor formerly of Becton Rangers and 12th London Reg.

An extract from the June 1941 'Co-Partners' Magazine' said, Product Works On Febuary 2nd, Mr H.A. Connor was presented with a case of pipes for himself and a handbag for his wife. He was retiring after 38years service with the company.

Thanks in anticipation
John
