Please does anyone have any information on William Andrews listed at nos 3, 126 and 145 Steelhouse lane, Bath Street and Victoria Road Aston. Described as a Sewing Machine distributor and manufacturer and a bicycle distributor and manufacturer between the dates 1871 to 1902. Possible that the cycle business was sold to Triumph around 1902. Possibility of a new firm United Steel Wire Mill founded in 1907 which manufactured spokes for bicycle and motorcycle wheels. Any help, information, photographs would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks, Sylvia.
