Having served his time from 1879 to 1886 in his father's works Messrs. Thomas and Taylor laundry engineers of London and Stockport he was then engaged by them as traveller; and in 1890 was appointed manager of their London works. He designed and superintended the erection of public laundries baths and wash-houses and dairies all over the United Kingdom in several of which he installed electric lighting. His death took place on 3rd January 1902 in his thirty-sixth year." Grace's Guide. "While the upper classes went on employing washerwomen and/or general servants there were various cheaper "send-out" laundry services in the later 19th century and early 20th including laundries that brought both domestic laundry and linen from hotels etc. to a "hand-finished" standard. The simplest were wet wash US and bag wash UK arrangements where you sent off a bundle of dirty laundry to be washed elsewhere. Ironing was done at home at this bottom end of the market. In some places a mangle woman with a box mangle would charge pennies for pressing household linen and everyday clothing." oldandinteresting. London: Heywood & Company Ltd, nd.(c.1900). hardcover
