Edward Tewsley (c.1865-1881)

Edward Coltherd Tewsley was the third son of Henry Tewsley and his first wife Elizabeth Shearer Coltherd.

Henry Tewsley developed the company Sargood, Son & Ewen from its infancy. The business began in Stafford Street and relocated to a new purpose built, three storied warehouse with a boot factory in Lower High Street. Here in 1881 his son Edward was killed from a fall down the lift shaft at the age of 16 years. Edward is buried here in the Northern Cemetery with his father and other family members.
