Obituaries and other biographical notes/profiles Arranged by surname September 2016 © ICAEW Library and Information Service This index has been developed by the ICAEW Library & Information Service to help genealogists who are tracing their family history to find out more about ancestors who were accountants. It also provides tools to help researchers trying to find out more about the history of accountancy firms through the individuals associated with those firms. The index was first published by the ICAEW Library & Information Service in January 2007 and will continue to be updated in the coming years. Sources The index was created by LIS staff who volunteered their time to index the obituaries and photographs included in a number of journals within the collection of the ICAEW Library & Information Service. The sources used to compile the current edition were: • A history of accountants in Ireland (ICAI, 1983) • A hundred years of accountancy (Begbie, Robinson, Cox & Knight - 1938) • Accountancy (1938-1965) • Associated Accountants' Journal (1905-1927, except February 1914) • Balance (1923-1925, except December 1925) • Centenary, 1882-1982 (Birmingham and West Midlands Society of Chartered Accountants, 1982) • British Accountants: A Biographical Sourcebook by Robert H.
