    Cool Blacksmith/farriers

    The wifes grandfather worked in the Miidland Railway Goods Dept in Bristol at the begining of the last century as a blacksmith/farrier.
    I cannot find any records of staff employed as blacksmith/farriers in the staff record books of the Midland Railway or GWR.
    Can any body help me out
