Stephen and William Stanley
« on: Wednesday 06 September 17 21:06 BST (UK) »
Trying to get some more information on my 5th and 6th great grandfathers...

Stephen Stanley (Married to Elizabeth Dodd in 1793, Coventry), had a son, William Stanley in 1794.

He was a Ribbon Manfuacturer and I have 2 potential references to that...

The Morning Post (London, England), Monday, February 27, 1815

Partnerships dissolved....John Mcrae and Stephen Stanley, ribbon manufacturers, Wood-street, London...

https://books.google.com/books?id=NC9bAAAAQAAJ&pg=PA172&lpg=PA172&dq=Stephen+Stanley+ribbon+manufacturers+London&source=bl&ots=2s9KPGCYAO&sig=H5wCGemKSYHFdZ-M_ihRegMM8IY&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjd1LO9gY_WAhVl1oMKHZ6WBa8Q6AEIKzAB#v=onepage&q=Stephen%20Stanley%20ribbon%20manufacturers%20London&f=false

Trying to get his date of birth and date of death, plus any additional information on the ribbon manufacturers he owned.

Also trying to get some more information on his father who I believe to be a William Stanley. He was possibly married to an Elizabeth in 1765, but that's all I've been able to find so far.

As always any help or new information greatly appreciated :)
