Angie Try Historical Directories to see if their surname matches up with a company name. Do you know if the building is still standing and where it was. Someone might be able to help you then Lin |

The Francis Frith site is often a good starting point. Have you tried Googling the name of the factory - you have the option of requesting images only. |

Another possibility would be a local history society. |
