'Turnback Tuesday' features jewelry store in downtown Derby
Turnback Tuesday says hello to a business that started in 1896 at 10 Elizabeth St., Derby.
This "gem" was Taylor & Gregory Jewelers. The owners were William G. Taylor and Louis L. Gregory, both from Derby. The business later moved to 6 Elizabeth St. (shown) in 1903. They remained partners until Taylor’s death in 1926. In 1933, the business became L.L. Gregory & J.S. Burgess Co.
Thanks as always to the Derby Public Library staff for sharing interesting local history each week.
