ENOCH A .B. MELLOR
Enoch A. B. Mellor, aged eighty-three years,
died yesterday at his home, on Woodside
Avenue, Hillcrest, after a short illness.
He was widely known here as a potter and for
a number of years was general manager of the
plants of Charles Howell Cook. He retired to
private life two years ago and at that time was
succeeded with the Cook interests by
Frederick G. Mellor, his son.
Mr. Mellor was born in England and came to Trenton
in 1866. He was employed at the bench for a number
of years and then became general manager of the
old Crescent Pottery, which at the time was owned
by Charles Howell Cook and William S. Hancock.
After the disolution of the Crescent under the old
management, Mr. Mellor became Mr. Cook's
general manager.
In expressing his regret at Mr. Mellor's death Mr.
Cook last evening said that he had been one of
the most skillful potters who ever came to Trenton,
and that he was in all respects a fine man and a
valuable citizen.
Mr. Mellor had long been a member of the Methodist
Church. He was formerly affiliates with the State
Street Church and in later years with the Broad
Street Church. He was prominent in Odd
Fellowship.
Besides his son he left two daughters, Mrs. John
Reade and Mrs. George Brock.
The funeral arrangements for which have not been
completed, will be in charge of Poulson & Coleman.
