Isaac GRIFFITHS was a tube welder born 24 July 1849 at High Bullen, Wednesbury. He moved to the Pleck area of Walsall after his marriage in 1872 . One of the places he worked at was at the firm "Gill & Russell" on Pleck Road,Walsall. Isaac's younger brother Isaiah Burkitt GRIFFITHS emigrated to the US or Canada to start his own tube factory over there, similar to the one he started over here. He wanted Isaac to go with him but his wife Elizabeth refused to go. It would be interesting to find out if he did emigrate. Regards Pat.
