Oliver Freeman and Joseph Freeman

[davidyard]

I am researching my Grandfather, Oliver Freeman, precious stone dealer. And my Great grandfather, Joseph Freeman, diamond dealer.
The business was at 15 Vyse Street,Birmingham.
Any information on their business would be appreciated. I am looking at the period between the 1890's and 1930's
Many thanks

Hi David and welcome to the forum, I assume you know that the shop is still there. Hopefully a member will be able to help you.
