My Ancestor william Bright is listed as a gold beater on the 1861 census lodging in Suffolk street with the head of the house Thomas Hutchins a bronze maker.
By 1871 william is now married and described as a Watch maker living with his wife jane his sons alfred and henry and his brother Henry who is also a watch maker it looks as if they are all living in Pershore Road?
Could anyone tell me of any History or further records I may be able to access on Gold Beaters/ Watch makers in Birmingham at this time.
Many Thanks
