I have an entry for my Grandfather and his parents. Both are listed as being Horsekeeper L.G.O.Co. I know my G.Grandfather was at one time in the army and then later the Police. Is this some sort of Governement job or just initials of a company. Ideas please?? Jacky :-)

Thank you for your replies. An omnibus Company does sound a possibility. Jacky :-)

Jacky You could try this site www(.)ltmuseum(.)co(.)uk. This has quite a lot of information, there is a telephone number and contact address. My g.father was an Omnibus Driver for most of his working life, they were all horse-drawn until the early 1900's. Kathleen
