My Great Grand Father Samuel Stocks started a Mineral water business in Accrington, Lancs. he was the inventer of Iron Brew and Dandilion and Burdock drinks. The business was founded in 1872 and was bought out by Tizer in the 1960's or 70's. Tizer was bought soon after by Barr's of Glasgow. I believe Sam was the son of the owner of an Iron Works, probably in Preston. He was born in 1837.
