Clubmakers J H Andrew & Co Sheffield Better known as a cutlery firm, J H Andrew & Co made some iron clubs which have come our way. One of Victorian Sheffield's self-made businessmen, J H Andrew started as a workman with Wilson & Sothern but, by the age of 22, was a partner with Richard Graves & Son. Around 1860 he started his own steel business in Malinda Street in Sheffield before setting up the Toledo Works. Obviously the company was involved in all stages of production as they owned the Silkstone Colliery in Chesterfield. Andrew turned down the guild title of Master Cutler because of ill health and died, in his mid 50s, in 1884. The company certainly continued long after his death as the clubs I have seen are from around 1910. Search the catalogue for clubs by this maker | |
