Derbyshire Papermakers

The following names appear in the articles "Some Notes on Derbyshire Paper Mills, Part 1 and Part 2" by Tanya Schmoller which appeared in the January 1994 and March 1994 issues of The Quarterly, The review of the British Association of Paper Historians. Back issues of this journal can be ordered from the BAPH Web site. A list of the paper mills mentioned in the articles appears here.

If you would like more information about one of these names, please  e-mail me at susan@knowmark.ca. Be sure to include the names you are interested in as well as your return e-mail address!

Important Note: There is quite a bit of information given in these articles for some of the listed names, however, for others there is barely a mention of where they were at a particular time. I do not have any information other than what I send you and I do not have any information on people who are not listed here!
