In 1797, Green & Hague appeared in a directory as a table knife manufacturer and factor at Sims Croft, a back-street that was once near the present Cathedral.  The trade mark was ‘Green’ and ‘G’, with crosses and a heart.  The partners were John Green and George Hague.  This was presumably the John Green listed in 1787 as a cutler, making table knives ‘in general’, at Sims Croft (using the trade mark ‘W. LOY’).   The partners also registered a silver mark in 1793.  Green & Hague was dissolved in 1797, when it was involved in the manufacturing and sale of table knives and spring knives.  George Hague continued to trade at Sims Croft and Campo Lane until about 1818, though his later career has not been traced.  John Green may have been the ‘factor’ at Paradise Square, who was buried at the parish church on 13 January 1819, aged 58.  A notice posted to his creditors in The Sheffield Independent, 22 December 1821, suggested that he died indebted.  However, he owned ten messuages or dwelling houses at Hawley Croft, which were later offered for sale (Sheffield Independent, 26 January 1822).
