John Dilworth+

LOMAX, Jacob Worked circa. 1900 Bolton, Lancashire UK. Pawnbroker and amateur luthier. Decent work. Jacob Lomax / Bolton 1900 / No. 31

William Meredith Morris+

He was born in Bolton in 1850, and he makes and sells violins professionally at 11 Durham Street, in conjunction with his other and chief business, pawnbroking. He uses his own varnish, and turns out work which, in point of workmanship and tone, is of average merit.
