George Parks & Co.

On King Street.

A listing proves a year, not a span. A house in the 1854 book and the 1858 Review was there in 1854 and in 1858. The years between are not evidenced here, and nothing on this page should be read as saying the firm traded through them.

Houses on the same street whose owner or occupant carries the surname. Ford’s register gives no occupation, so this is a name at a number and no more.
