Messenger and Co. Horticultural Engineers Records of Messenger and Co. Ltd Deposited in T80/8 via Leicestershire Museums, Art Galleries and Records Service. Thomas Goode Messenger is recorded as having a plumber's, glazier's and glassfitter's business in High Street, Loughborough as early as 1855. In 1858 he formed his own company of Messenger and Co. and by 1863 is listed as a plumber and hydraulic engineer. By 1877 the firm is described as "horticultural builders and hot water apparatus manufacturers". In 1874, Walter Chapman Burder purchased the company and in 1884 the business was moved from the High Street premises to Cumberland Road, off Ashby Road. A foundry was then built and further extensions in 1895 led to the complete closure of the High Street Branch. The firm was famous, particularly in the Victorian and Edwardian period, for making greenhouses, verandahs, summer houses, cucumber frames, melon pits, mushroom beds, orchid stages, vineries and peach houses. As the demand declined from the 1930s, the company began to concentrate more on the manufacture of heating equipment and became an engineering firm. It was also known by the name Midland Horticultural Company. The Collection contains contract files for buildings erected in Great Britain and overseas. Many records for Leicestershire were retained by the Records Office of Leicestershire, Leicester and Rutland. The Records Office for Leicestershire, Leicester and Rutland also holds records relating to Messenger and Co. The material held there contains financial records, purchase and estimate books, contract books, order books, contract files, plans etc 1866-1973 [Reference DE 2121] The catalogue is arranged by the following counties: Bedfordshire Gloucestershire Middlesex Sussex Berkshire Hampshire Norfolk Warwickshire Buckinghamshire Herefordshire Northamptonshire West Midlands Cambridgeshire Hertfordshire Northumberland and Co.

    to DOOR DORE VILLAGE SOCIETY No. 28 WINTER 1992 ISSN 0965-8912 The Origin of local Surnames Following the Annual General Meeting of the Dore Village Society held on 7th October, 1992, Professor David Hey of the University of Sheffield gave a most interesting talk. A research class of the Division of Continuing Education, under the guidance of David Hey, had been meeting to study local surnames - how they arose, how they spread and their present distribution. Every area had distinctive surnames, Sheffield being no exception - Broomhead, Crapper, Crookes, Elshaw, Furness, Hattersley, Scargill for example. Surmanes arose for a variety of reasons, most commonly occupational - Smith, Miller, nicknames - White, Gray, from father's name - Johnson, Williamson and topographical - Hill, Brook and Green. Many names came from a very localised area such as a farm or small hamlet. It usually meant that this was the place of origin and did not indicate any high position in the locality e.g. Biltcliffe - from Upper and Lower Bilerscliffe Farms near Penistone, Stainforth - from Stoney Ford near Wincobank. The early information had been gained Stannington Brass Band entertains the crowds at Dare Show 92 from the poll tax returns of 1379. Other sources were the list of Cutlers of 1614 and the register of apprentices and freemen from 1624 to 1814.
