I am trying to trace a John Taylor or any of his family. He was born 1919/1920 I believe in Yorkshire and was connected to the Taylor Drug Co based inYorkshire who merged with Timothy Whites Ltd and subsequently Boots.
I believe he was based in Aldershot at one of their branches in 1947/1948.

Any information anyone has on the family or the company would be welcome please
