Ekimp:
Hi, have you looked at the Dudley Archives? They have information including “...an extraordinary card index containing the names of thousands of individuals connected with glassmaking in the UK, from the 17th to the 19th century”. (Compiled and donated by Brian Hardyman)

Georgina Drummond:
Thanks for this. I've made a note and will definitely pay the Glass Archive a visit when it's possible to go to Dudley again.
