William Brown's

Account Book 1851-8

Notes:

I purchased the book on ebay after it had been discarded out by the management of Brown & Merry, together with other historically valuable document, when they were planning to use an old storage area..

The book is Volume “C” of a series of Customer Account books. What happened to the other volumes is unknown.

The Volume was started in 1851 and the last page is dated 1858. However some earlier entries were brought forward from earlier volumes, and some pages reused. Last date seen 1868.

The book has been passed to the Tring and District Local History and Museum Society for safe keeping.
