Can You Help?
February 2012
We have had an enquiry from the RAF regarding Flying Officer
Charles Brocklehurst Pinnock. (b 1899, d 1967)
and as a result, we would like to make contact with any relatives/decendants of
Charles.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I am trying to find any information
and/or images of posters advertising
"Pinnock's Pickles"
that were used in and around London & also on the tube trains during the 1930's
and 1940's.
My father, as a schoolboy, has
recollections of seeing such posters on the inside
of London Transport Piccadilly Line
tube train carriage ends
and according to
his father
the advertisers were relations of our family.
Update (April 11)
Through this website we have now made contact
with descendants of Alfred and Emily's
family,
however information about Pinnock's Pickles and the Pickle factory is still as
elusive as ever,
Apparently red vans were seen in London advertising the
pickles - can you help?
Update (April 09)
After some more research following the release of the 1911
census, are you a relative of:-
Alfred (65) and Emily (62) Pinnock of 2 Landseer
Road, Holloway, London N.
who are classified as Pickle manufacturers in the 1911 census.
Or are you related to their children who were listed for this
address in the census at this date :
Arthur, (35) Commercial
traveller (Pickle manager), his wife, Emilie, (39) Clerk to Alfred,
his brother,
Reginald (30) Town traveller, (Pickle manager) and sister Sybil
(29) Clerk to Alfred, (Pickle manager)
We suspect that some of Alfred & Emily's several children
were also involved in the business,
(but were not listed at this address on census night.)
If you have any information, please use the "Contact Us" form
to get in touch. as we would like to hear from you.
