Kate contacted me for any information I might have about a dairy in Dingle that her great-grandfather was said to have worked at. Her family knew it only as 'Johnson's Dairy'.
Her great-grandfather was William Taylor Johnson (b. 1872) who was a Carter in the Dingle area. It did not surprise me to hear that a Carter had found employment with a local dairy. When I scoured my records I found a dairy at 22-24 Toxteth Grove, that fitted the description provided by Kate. In the 1900 directory it is listed as being run by cowkeeper John Johnson.
Kate is now looking further into her family history to discover whether this John Johnson may have been related to her great-grandfather.
