  • Hicking Pentecost Nottingham

    Hubby's grandfather was a Managing Director at Hicking Pentecost. Apparently he worked his way up through the company. His name was John Mason and he came from a normal background but the only MD's I know of have money and her didn't have any! Does anyone know if there are any interesting records at all?

    What did they do?

    Googled and answered my own question - thread manufacturers, taken over by Coats Viyella.

          Maybe companies house can help. I think they have records of all MD's for Limited Companies (might be worth emailing them to ask)

            I'd suggest you email Coats Viyella and see if they have a company archivist. And also Nottingham Archives in case they deposited anything there.

              Might also be worth braving a search on A2A &/or TNA's online stuff.
