Talk:H. P. Bulmer

My grandfather, John Bulmer, was born in Herefordshire between the years 1860-75. I have always been led to believe that he was one of THE Bulmer family. He went to live in Tadcaster, probably in the 1890's where he ran an artist's shop bought for him by his family. The story goes that he was not interested in joining the family business and was therefore carted off to Yorkshire. He married his wife Charlotte who gave birth to four daughters; one of these being my mother Kathleen, who was born in 1902. By this time the family had moved to a shop in Huddersfield. Unfortunately John Bulmer died between 1902 and 1910 leaving his wife to cope with four young daughters, soon down to three when one died from consumption. My mother continued to live in Huddersfield, where I was born, and she died there in 1977. I have always wondered if my links to the Bulmer family were true and would be delighted if anyone could throw any light on this for me. trevor@armitage1938.fsnet.co.uk

Plagiarism

A lot of this article seems to be lifted from the Bulmer website. While the company is probably not concerned about this, I understood that this is against Wikipedia policy ??? 85.22.29.120 05:00, 12 July 2007 (UTC)

Agreed, whilst some useful information is included in the article, it mainly reads as a corporate history and has a unsuitable romanticised tone. Consider a rewrite.--Marmite disaster 14:25, 19 July 2007 (UTC-

== - NOT plagiarism - ==

'''Of course I have looked at the Bulmer website, but nothing of my family history is to be found in any of their websites. My information is unavailable anywhere else, so how can it be construed as plagiarism? I just thought this might be of interest to anyone in the Bulmer family, and that is all. Trevor Armitage'''

== Misunderstanding above ==

Trevor - I think you have misunderstood the negative criticism on Plagiarism above. I think this refers to the main article and not your contribution on family history above in Talk. In fact, it is edits like yours that help take this away from being just a "corporate" brochure. As far as I can see, nobody is accusing you of plagiarism and your edits are most welcome here.
