Footnotes
Marsh & Jones, later known as Marsh, Jones & Cribb, were cabinet makers and upholsterers based in Leeds, Yorkshire, operating from 1864 to 1936. Their workshops and showrooms were located at West Bar, Boar Lane, and Basinghall Street.
The business began in 1864 when John Marsh and Edward Jones purchased the established firm of John Kendell at 10 West Bar. They later expanded to Boar Lane in 1869. Kendell had also maintained a London branch at Cavendish Square.
Henry Humphries Cribb, a London-based furnisher with a business in Soho Square, sent his son to Leeds to apprentice with Marsh & Jones. By 1872, the younger Cribb had become a partner in the firm, which then began trading as Marsh, Jones & Cribb, as reflected in contemporary directories.
