History
In 1860, John Paterson and Henry C Palmer, both partners of JC Young and Company, purchased the business on JC Young's retirement, and renamed it Paterson, Palmer and Company. The business of Ray, Glaister and Company was then purchased and Briscoe Ray became a partner shortly afterwards and the business was then known as Paterson, Ray, Palmer and Company. In 1876 Paterson bought out the other interests and with James Robert Laing (previously with Laing and Webster) as partner, the firm became Paterson, Laing and Company.
