2050 A portrait of Francis Pirie of Waterton (1808-1870). The son of Alexander Pirie I (1778-1860). Joined his father in 1836 as a senior partner in the Stoneywood Papermill.

Correspondent Hugh Flouch has been in touch with the following additional information about Pirie:
"Between at least 1841 and 1844 (documented in census and local tax map), Francis Pirie lived in The Hermitage, Hermitage Lane (Now Hermitage Road).
"Now in Harringay in the London Borough of Haringey, it was at the time in the Parish of Tottenham. However, its location right in the southwest corner of the parish meant that it was as likely to be referred to as being in Stoke Newington or Stamford Hill. Pirie's will used both of the latter two locations.
"He and his family had moved to St. Pancras by the time of the 1851 census." |
