Remembering the lives of those who worked for the North Eastern Banking Company. Established at Newcastle in 1872, by 1914, the bank had over 100 branches and sub-branches, and in that year it amalgamated with the Bank of Liverpool to form the largest provincial bank in the country. In December 1918 Bank of Liverpool merged with Martin’s Bank Ltd to become Bank of Liverpool & Martins Limited. Other banks subsequently amalgamated with Bank of Liverpool and Martins, which then merged with Lancashire & Yorkshire Bank Ltd in Jan 1928 to become Martins Bank Ltd. Martins Bank Ltd was acquired by Barclays Bank Ltd in 1968. Further information about the people in this community may also be available in Barclays Group Archives (see https://www.archive.barclays.com/ for further information), or Martins Bank Archive (see http://www.martinsbank.co.uk ).
