[Morecambe Ex Pat]

As part of our genealogy research we are looking for information about the Howard and Bullough factory - Attleboro Mill in Massachusetts.

We know that some of our descendants went out there to set up that factory but we were wondering if anyone had any information about how they might have been recruited. The ones who went were blacksmiths so had the right trade to be of use but wondered if anyone had read any accounts of reps of the company travelling the area.

We have some information about the USA side of things from contacts in Fall River MA but wondered if anyone had any information from the UK side. There is some info at Accrington library which still needs looking through but we cannot get there just at the moment.
