Litholite worker
« on: Thursday 20 May 21 20:20 BST (UK) »
Can anyone tell me what a Litholite worker is?  Is it same as lithographic or completely different.  I'm looking at someone who gave that as their occupation on their WW1 service record - company name is Hunt and the individual lived in Hackney if that helps.  Thanks in advance.
