Basic Biographical Details

Name: Wigglesworth & Marshall Mackenzie
Designation:  
Born: c. 1927
Died: 1935
Bio Notes: The partnership of David Barclay Niven and Herbert Hardy Wigglesworth partnership was dissolved in 1927. It had run out of work following the completion of Hambros Bank in London. Niven had developed other interests sold his interest in the practice to his chief assistant Arthur Kenyon. Wigglesworth merged his half of the remaining practice with Alexander George Robertson Mackenzie's as Wigglesworth & Marshall Mackenzie.

Although Mackenzie's Aberdeen office was commissioned to build a large new office for the Halifax Building Society, by 1935 the Wigglesworth & Mackenzie practice in London was at a low ebb: Robert W R Mackenzie (1913-75) of the Perth bleaching (Lumsden & Mackenzie) side of the family was to have joined the office, but in the event there was not enough work to justify him coming. The Wigglesworth and Stokes partnerships were dissolved: Wigglesworth retired completely and AGR returned to Aberdeen.
