Here are a few old adverts for shops and companies around the Sheffield area. Some of these buisnesses are still in operation today.

Guest Albert Fowler

Cool.

Thank-you for your hard work. I believe that the one for John Fowler, cooking stoves... is related to me!

Do you have a date for that one?

Don't put any money on this, it's just a guess - 1860's-1870's - best guess 1862 Pawson & Brailsford.

Cool.

Just bringing this back to the top so that newer members may puruse or even add some new ones.

An absolutely fantastic collection to which I am more than pleased to add a few paltry items of my own.

These adverts were taken from the 1936 Year Book of the Coke Oven Managers' Association.

My Great great grandad.

Off topic BUT

Would your Great grandad James Burnand also be an ancestor of William (Bill) Burnand (1920 - 1997) or Margaret (Maggs) Oadley, nee Burnand (1912 - 1995)?

Both of these are relatives of mine, aunt and uncle by marriage, a case of brother and sister from one family marrying sister and brother from another.

As they are only losely related, even though I knew them well, I have never studied their family history, but I'm sure my mum would like to know.

Not in my tree, sorry.

OK thanks,

It was worth a try as Burnand can't be the most common surname around and we are limiting it to those from Sheffield.

There are a few Burnand families around, mainly located in Sheffield, and it's possible they are all from the same origin. I can trace mine back to 1640.
