Help! Does anyone have any idea where I would find employee records for Grey/Green Coaches - owned by the Ewer family in Stamford Hill. I am trying to trace my elusive Grandfather. He apparently worked for them late 1940's/1950's and possibly even into the early 1960's.
Thanks
Glenys

I presume you've tried Google - there's a lot of results which may yield some links?

Have you tried a workplace search on Friends Reunited? Search under grey geen coaches, no slash or hyphen.
