        Looking at William Jnr's occupation and it rang a bell. Callender Cables was at Erith at that time which, down the river, is not very far at all.

        Callender's, originally an importer and refiner of bitumen for road construction, began manufacturing insulated cables in the 1880s at their Erith site on the Thames.

        Looks like Dad have worked for them too

            Not yet. Got to pop out in a minute so will have another look if no one else has when I get back.

            My grandson goes to Sutton at Hone cubs by Ship Lane.

            If you go on the CityArk website you can search BMD's for free you might fins your Acton';s
