Local tradesmen in 1835: flannel to hairdresser | ||
Don't
forget! The surnames are first.
|
Almost
every community in Mid Wales in Victorian times had flannel
manufacturers listed in the trade directories. Notice among all the grocers, two
grocers who are also tallow chandlers
or dealers in tallow. It
is unlikely that many ordinary working people could afford to visit a
hairdresser. |
