When a piece of Family History comes your way

Just thought I’d share this with you…

My late Grandfather(my hero) started a haulage company in 1926… This week I have been lucky enough to have been gifted the first ledger (that I didn’t even know still existed) belonging to the company…

The very first job he did with his 1 ton Ford was a load of scaffold on September 6th 1926 for the princely sum of 4 shillings…

To actually see the entries in this ledger, meticulously logged in his best handwriting, actually brought a tear to my eye…

It’s not very often I get excited but this week I sure did :slight_smile:

do you have any pics or more info please.regards,jack preston.

I don’t think I have a picture of the lorry…I’ll trawl through my collection later…
I will post a picture of the ledger entry tomorrow, I’m just on my way out now to play taxi driver for my daughters.

Regards
Kate
