Bottle-making research
Submitted by dcw on Sun, 10/06/2013 - 23:47
Glasshouses making bottles seem to have sprung up all over London. The latest to reach me comes from Cathie Daniel who writes:
Whilst researching my husbands family tree I found a connection to the Kilners of the Kilner jar fame. Amongst the family members was a man called Cuthbert William Bateson who worked for them but then moved to London. Whilst researching his history I came across entries in Kelly's Directory 1902 and the Post Office Directory 1934 which were 'Bateson & Co Glass Bottle Manufacturers, Bianca Road, Peckham.'
Can anyone help with more information about this one?
