Bear in mind that Coach Makers , made HORSE DRAWN coaches as well, no cars then. and not many trains. |

Thank you David. I do not seem to be able to find the second site. I will search the first thoroughly . It looks very useful! Maurice My William Faichen was a Coach maker in Bishops Sutton. I have sent you a message Alice |

The Hasted family were famous for Coachmaking , in Hampshire and Middlesex . If you have Hasteds in your tree contact me, or if you come across William Hasted believed to have married Charlotte in or near Bishops Sutton between 1820 and 1828. Many Coachmakers were also Blacksmiths and Farriers so look there also when you search the directories as the trades complimented each other you will find firms that covered the whole spectrum. Hope this helps Maurice |
