Joseph Frederic Pearson

From Graces Guide

1927 Obituary[1]

" I regret to have to record the death on Monday of Mr. Joseph Frederic Pearson, a well-known Midland iron manufacturer, of The Birches, West Hagley. He had been in failing health for some months, and was in his seventy-first year. Educated at Brewood, he afterwards went into his father's business at Netherton Furnaces, near Dudley, and in the course of a long business career, had had interests in many concerns in the iron and steel trades in North and South Staffordshire and in Northamptonshire. He was President of the Birmingham Exchange from 1910 to 1916. He retired from business some seven or eight years ago."
