Tillotson Publishing Family of Bolton (Carole O'Reilly)
Upcoming Talk - March 2025
7.30pm at Harwood Methodist Church
Thursday 27th March 2025
Speaker: Carole O'Reilly
The Tillotson family published a wide variety of local newspapers and magazines in the town. Many were familiar names such as the Bolton Evening News, Eccles Journal and the Tyldesley Weekly. What is less well-known is their innovations in publishing serial fiction by the leading authors of the day. This talk offers a glimpse into the origins and development of this successful publishing business and its impact on the locality.
