which Cotton mill??
« on: Monday 15 June 09 02:21 BST (UK) »
Just wondering how I can find which cotton mill my ancestor would have worked in if she lived in Glossop aged 13 in 1881.

Hi Karen,

I don't know the answer, but this website might give you an idea about the cotton mills in Glossop area in 1891,  and there were quite a lot
