Saddlers - Aston area

negritaspider

TunisianBrummie
My gr. and gr.gr. grandfathers are noted with the proffession of 'saddler' and 'riding saddle maker' on census reports.
Was there a Saddler business in Aston c1800-1880?
If so, does anyone know the name of it!
 
In the 1903 Kellys there is a Saddlers web and girth manufacturers
Ollard,Westcome & Co.101 Molland St
 
There were quite a few saddlers in birmingham at that time and they probably changed over the years, but here is a list from Whites directory of 1873

Hi Mike,
thanks, but can't read your thumb link!
Is there a link to the White's directory that you can give me, then I could browse it myself?
 
No, the directory isn't online. You should be able to enlarge the page if you click on it, and then click again on the bottom, where it says "open original"
If not, i'll try copying onto the page, but that is more awkward as you have to check the program has read it right. Let me know anyway

Not sure why, as it works for me when I checked, but here is the entry. As copying pdfs involves character recognition, it can give slight errors. I will try to correct any, but they should be obvious if i miss any
