Thread: Gilroys Tonic

I am trying to find more information about my grandmothers father and grandfather who were named Gilroy and came from Alnwick,Northumberland.......they were chemists of some kind and sold Gilroys Tonic that cured it seems eveything....it was called GILROYS RHEUMATIC MIXTURE their premises were The Medical Hall & Family Drug Store,20 Church St,Newcastle......This must have been during the late1800s......if this rings a bell at all I would love to know...............Thank you

Hello

Presumably you have looked for a will.....

Have you looked in trade directories of the time Historical Directories

Contacting the local family history society FFHS - Home Page or local Record Office for history of the business or if you are lucky, business records may help.
