I know that three (maybe four) of my great aunts -- Donnelly girls -- worked in the Ardeer factory from about 1914 until they emigrated to Canada in 1927. For my family history, I'm trying to find out exactly when they worked there, what they actually did, etc. I'm wondering if there are any employee records accessible anywhere. My paternal family comes from Devon and I know a great deal about them because many of them worked for the Great Western Railroad in Newton Abbot. The GWR employee records are all readily accessible. I'm hoping at least some of the Ardeer records have been preserved.
