Good Morning,

I was just wondering if anyone knows if Rowntrees Factory in York have copies of the company magasines that the public can view?

My Grandparents both used to work for Rowntrees and told me that they were given a copy of the company magasine each month (not sure if they still do it now).

I know that a lot of my family over the years have worked for them and in fact the only photo I have of my great uncle was taken from a clipping from the magasine after he was killed in WW2.

I would love to know if any of my other family members had articles
about them and if so where would I go to find them.

Many Thanks

Dawn
