Baillon Nottingham lacemakers
« on: Tuesday 09 February 21 18:26 GMT (UK) »
I would like, if possible, to find out about the lace making business of the Baillon family in Nottingham in the 19th century. I'm not looking for genealogical information about the people, and am in the process of checking online newspaper archives. If anyone has any suggestions I'd be grateful.
Thanks in advance

As well as numerous newspaper mentions, there are a number of mentions of the BAILLONs in Perry's Bankrupt and Insolvent Gazette over the years - eg a Trustees (1860, 1864, 1865, 1870), dissolving partnership (1861).

Also as a subscriber for "A History of the Machine-Wrought Hosiery and Lace Manufactures" by William FELKIN, published 1867.
