Lawrenson, Mineral Water Manufacturer (Ince?)
My son has recently found a "Pop" bottle in a roadside ditch south of Warrington. The bottle is embossed "Lawrenson's Wigan". Does anyone know where their factory was and the dates they operated?

Hi
My Great grandfather was Isaac Wilson Lawrence, brewer and inn keeper of Ince in Wigan. He was born 24/2/1843 and was married to Elizabeth Greenwood of Wigan. I am trying to find any memorabilia connected to the brewery (i.e. old bottles) or information relating to the family and would be very grateful for any help.
Many thanks.
