Biggins Brothers

[Ellesse]

I'm researching my ancestors and have been told that maybe there was a Biggins Brothers who had something to do with the cutlery trade. The person I spoke with seems to think that they had their own business. Is there any way of being able to find anything out about this ? ;-)

Thank you everyone for these leads. I met a very distant relative last week through Ancestry.com and she had given me this information, but didn't know how to go further with it. I knew that someone on this site would maybe help and you've proved me correct. Many thanks, :)

My husband's Grandfather George Henry Biggin was a silversmith in Sheffield 1897-1936 and his father before Him Alfred Biggin & Son Arundel Street Sheffield. We are trying to see if their is a link between George Henry Biggin and John Biggin so again any help would be appreciated.
