About
Alexander Keiller (1804–1874) was a patron of the arts and industrialist. They were born in Dundee.
In context
Ahlafors Spinneri was founded in 1855 and closed in 1966, after 111 years. Among the 7 other textile industry companies founded in the 1850s we hold, those that closed lasted a median of 143 years, so this one closed earlier than most.
