Hi All,

Does anyone know if there was a Blacksmith Register for approximately 1900-1919?

Best Wishes

Try this

It's a v.g. blacksmiths index although I think most of the entries are earlier than the dates you're looking for.

Thank you Angela for telling us about this.
I can see I'll have to be busy adding alot of my folk.
Those who weren't Ag. Labs. were mostly employed in those trades mentioned on the site.
