Does anyone by any chance know the whereabouts of any material relating to
William Muir (d.1888) or his firm William Muir & Co., machine tool makers of
Manchester from 1852 to circa the 1920s, I think. I have seen references in
business history articles to sketch books and letters by Muir, and to some
of the firm's accounting records, but none of the articles ever said where
they were. I've tried the NRA, IMechE, Museum of Science and Industry in
Manchester, so would be grateful for any clues!
