'George Barnsley and Sons'

[paulineb 10]

The firm of George Barnsley and Sons was in Cornish Street on the banks of the Don. They made tools for leather workers such as shoemekers and saddlers. Ceased trading in the 1990s. My ancestors worked there and I wondered if anyone know anyone who either worked there themselves or had relatives who worked there. would love to see old photographs etc.

Try Woodware Reptitions on Mowbray Street run by Colin and Roger Barnsley. As far as I know they still may tools for leatherwork.
