1871	Census John Hathaway 51 linen draper, b. Bourton, Gloucs

According to his entry in the ODNB, based on his biography, Albert Gamage, the founder of Gamage's Department Store in London, was apprenticed to a draper in Winslow. Gamage was born 1855 in Hereford (his father was born in Hanslope, so perhaps had Winslow connections), and in 1871 was listed as a draper in Kington, Herefs. He must have come to Winslow shortly after that, before he set up his shop in London in 1878. A piece in the Buckingham Advertiser by Alfred Clear (12 and 26 April 1930) confirms this:
	12 April: That the late Mr A.W. Gamage (who died at Chesham last week) was in the drapers shop of the late Mr. John Hathaway, Market Square, Winslow, at one time is undoubtedly the fact, but I cannot find anyone who remembers him being there. According to the Daily Press he went to London in 1874 and probably left Winslow considerably earlier than that.
	26 April: I am informed that several persons in Winslow can remember the late Mr. A.W. Gammage [sic] being a shopman in Mr. John Hathaway's shop at Winslow. Mr. Thos. Curtis for one, remembers being served by him there.

Alfred Richard French (1850-1933) was the son of William H. French, ironmonger of Buckingham, nephew of Joshua Lewin French and grandson of William French. He worked for a draper in Oxford before coming to Winslow. He left in 1880 and worked as a tailor's travelling salesman, living at Newcastle under Lyme, Dublin and later Kensington. He got married at Peterborough in 1876 to Rosa Wigginton. In the late 1870s he produced the halfpenny-sized tokens shown below, presumably as gifts to his customers or potential customers.

	In the Market Square the chief windows are those of Mr. G. A. Stevens. The large plate-glass fronts are filled, and that most tastefully – one with all kinds of fancy drapery articles, etc. and the other with Christmas cards, etc., and if the eye and pocket are not tempted with the lowness of the price and the variety of the articles, we shall be mistaken.

WINSLOW MARKET SQUARE. A letter was read from Mr. Braggings [sic], draper, Market-square, Winslow, complaining of a hole two feet square in the footpath in front of his shop. – Councillor Neal said there was a dangerous hole. – Mr. Wise [RDC Surveyor] said he considered if he had nothing to do with the Square he had nothing to do with the paths round it. – Councillor Neal said he knew Mr. W. H. French repaired this path when he was surveyor. – Councillor East replied that Mr. French did it and the other surveyors refused to sign his accounts, so that he had to wait a long time for the money. – Several of the Councillors said they considered it to be a District Council path, but ultimately Councillor East moved that the Surveyor be instructed to repair it, which Councillor Phillips seconded. – Councillor Hedges moved, and Councillor Mead seconded a direct negative to the proposition. – Councillors Andrews, Lester, Dickins, Mead, and Hedges voted for the amendment, which was carried, only Councillors Neal, Phillips, and East voting for the resolution. – Councillor Hedges asked if the deputation had received any answer from Mr. Small respecting the Square. – Councillor East said Mr. Small promised to send an answer before their next meeting, but Mr. Willis said nothing had come. – Councillor Neal said as the footpath was directly leading from Horn-street to the Post-office they had a claim on the County Council, and he proposed they be called upon to repair it. – Councillor Rev. S. Phillips seconded the motion, and it was carried.
