Hi

I am trying to source information on my families business know locally as "The General".

Initially the first taxi company set up in Chester le Street, the General Omnibus ran both buses and coaches from the early 1900's maybe earlier!
The Atkinson family owned many vehicle related business due to the brothers all setting up various businesses.

Up until the mid 1990's Akinsons Coaches ran by third/fourth generation...

Why am I asking for images, and details. I too run my own set of businesses relating to the wedding market and I ve been informed that my great great grandad may have been one of the first to offer wedding cars in the north east (Taxi). I d really like to know more and search the general internet is not throwing much up at all.

Any information would be appreciated.

Thank you
