Subject: RE: Joseph Bryan Geoghegan, travelling singer, 1800s
Hello, i may be well of topic here but i'm trying to trace a man connected to a Coventry Cycle business and a Wolverhampton Music Hall/Theatre.

In 1879 there was a firm called the Lion Bicycle Company at Leicester Place. H. H. Griffin in 1890 stated that the cycle maker made Dandy-Horse type machines from 1879 who went on to become the proprieter of the chief music hall in Wolverhampton.

There did exist also a Coventry Lion Cycle co. in Wolverhampton after 1879 which i'm sure must be connected, but i can't find evidence to trace the man in question. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
