William Mills, Clerkenwell, London
Looking for information on a William Mills, who took over the Engine Turning Business of John Bower, King St Clerkenwell London about 1849 operated the business successfully, we believe he died about 1910.
We are interested in tracking the records of the business, and work done for Lord Harborough in the 1830's, William was an apprentice then, they built a Rose Engine Lathe for the Lord which was reputed to have cost 1500 pounds, a museum I am archivist for has recently acquired this lathe, and we are interested inJohn Bower &William Mills and the business they ran.
