Does anyone have any idea how I would find records of a company which was around in 1848 with the owner listed as a stock and share broker. It then carries on through the family under various names and descriptions such as exchange and east india bill brokers or just exchange brokers up to 1921 when it is described as bill brokers, though I have a record personally of the company in 1926.
I have no idea what these descriptions mean, apart from being something to do with banking and finances, so wondered if there was a place where records are kept? The company was always in London, so hopefully there is something, somewhere ...?!
Any pointers gratefully received!
Thanks
Andrea
