Title: Partnership agreement, 1841 [Go to resource]
Description: In 1838 Joseph Huntley, Thomas Huntleys' father, retired leaving a gap for a new partner in the London Street bakery. George Palmer's brother, William Isaac, was working as an apprentice in the Huntley's ironmongers shop opposite the bakery so connections between the two families already existed. George was a young entrepreneur who had undertaken an apprenticeship with a confectioner in Taunton. He also possessed the ability for business that Thomas Huntley lacked. In 1841, for the cost of £550, George Palmer became a partner in the Reading bakery.
