RichardB Posted August 23, 2011 Share Posted August 23, 2011 Thomas Marrian from Birmingham,started as a partner in Hinde, Marrian and Bolsover on Spring Street (1837-1841), he left and founded the Royd's Mill Brewery; these were renamed the Burton Weir Brewery (the premises were extended a number of times). In 1875 Marrian took Thomas Marrian and Francis Skelton Marrian (his sons) and Francis Markham Tindall into partnership; Tindall having been with the organisation for twenty years. Tindall moved into Thomas Marrian's house at the brewery when T Marrian (Sen.) bought Thurcroft, nr. Rotherham in 1864. Thomas Marrian Senior died 15th August 1883, at Thurcroft Hall, nr. Rotherham. His eldest son Thomas suceeded him and also lived at Thurcroft. Francis Skelton Marrian lived at Summerhill, near Sharrow. So, Thomas Marrian (Sen.) presumably in charge until his death; his eldest son succeeds him and by the winter of 1889 F M Tindall is the Managing Director of Thomas Marrian & Co. Ltd. F S Marrian, I don't think, ever got to play much of a part and with Syrup's excellent finds, I think we can see why.

charliepeace Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 many thanks to all those who helped shed light on Francis S Marrian,s death. I,m well impressed with your speediness!! Just one thing,tho. The newspaper obituary mentioned that on relinquishing the Directorship of his Brewery,he then moved towards mixing with 'Certain local circles', up to his death. Just what would these 'Certain local circles' comprise of??? Drinking clubs, prostitution,gambling? All ideas will be well received, and thanks again.
