  • The London Friendly Society of Workers in Copper was established in 1846. It changed its name to the London Friendly Society of Coppersmiths in about 1869, to the London and Provincial Friendly Society of Coppersmiths in about 1892, to the London and Provincial Society of Coppersmiths in 1901, to the London and Provincial Society of Coppersmiths and Metalworkers in 1909, and to the National Society of Coppersmiths, Braziers and Metalworkers in 1912. It absorbed the Liverpool United Society of Coppersmiths and Braziers (founded in 1860) in 1913. The Society ran in parallel with the National Union of Sheet Metal Workers and Braziers until the two merged in 1959 to form the National Union of Sheet Metal Workers and Coppersmiths.
