MERL Miscellaneous Note, 20 February 2020 - During a visit to examine the bottle, Carol Craddock explained that her great grandfather Edward Collins worked for the Pettifer family business. Stephen Pettifer ran a veterinary practice in Malmesbury, Wiltshire. He was married to Mercy Pettifer (née Collins). Edward Collins was a cousin of Mercy Collins. His family business made and marketed a number of animal health products including this drench and Santovin. The former practice building is now home to Mayfield House Hotel. Further details of the family can be found in: Margaret Rickard (comp.), 'Pettifer Business: A Family History, 1634-2004 (Privately Published, 2004). [Ollie Douglas, 20 February 2020]
