On a patent he gave his address as Balm Road, Hunslet, Leeds, and his occupation as Engineer.

Personal info: He appears to have lived from October 1874 to Dec 1949, both born and died in Leeds, Yorkshire.[1]

He had several relevant patents, not yet mostly in this database. A bunch of them are based on a 1918 GB patent we haven't identified yet.
