Honiton shoe and boot makers
« on: Tuesday 05 April 05 14:17 BST (UK) »
Does any one have any info on shoe and bootmakers, Honiton, Devon c1910. My grandfather trained as one before joing the army.

Nicola,

try the historical directories for Devon

http://www.historicaldirectories.org/hd/pageviewer.asp?fn=0000d1f8.tif&dn=LUL2012Btif&zoom=s

There are lots listed in the 1914 Kelley's Directory on p 118. You just need to work you way down the list.
