(Jack Paul)  The story of a family firm 1893 – 1990.

The story starts from the information in an advertisement in the Wells Journal of 27th July 1893.  The advert  stated that William Paul, who had been a painter, decorator and paper hanger for 17 years, would be starting a business on his own account, in Wells, as a painter and decorator.

Several generations of the family took over the business as time went by.  A list of some of the people employed by the company is included.
