Hi Andy The only Stanley Hurst/Hirst's on the National Index for 1881 are as follows: HURST, Stanley Son <1874> Lanc Lanc HURST, Stanley Son <1876> Ches Ches HIRST, Stanley Son <1877> York York HIRST, Stanley B. Son <1880> York York HURST, Stanley Son <1880> Lond HURST, Stanley G. Son <1880> Lond Lond Which makes me wonder if Stanley Hurst may have been a trade name and not a person? The ones shown above would be far too young for the 1870s/80s. Cheers Graham
