There are others but these are the main ones. There are also adverts for various Bullivant businesses. Seems Richard was at one time attempting to run a store like the TV story Paradise as was Charles Clegg Bullivant. Virtually every one ended up bankrupt at some time except Walter in Leamington Spa who had a considerable estate when he died.
Anyone got access to the stories I would be grateful. Otherwise I shall have to wait till I have paid a few bills before I access them. I am not sure all are my family branch. There is other Bullivants in Sheffield and Rotherham from Messingham Lincolnshire and another from Birmingham in Leeds. Some very definitely are.
