Peter McOnie, of Kinning Cottage, Kinning Place, Paisley Road, was the senior partner of P & W McOnie, Scotland Street. In earlier days William and Andrew McOnie were in business with their brother Peter. When William retired from P&W McOnie, Peter took Mr. Mirlees into the business and Andrew left shortly after. The firm became McOnie & Mirlees and at a later date Mirlees, Watson and Co. Ltd., Eglinton Works, Glasgow, specialising in the manufacture of sugar machinery. William joined Andrew in setting up W. & A. McOnie which later became McOnie, Harvey & Co. |
