I am a petroleum trade journalist working on a story about Gilbarco. What were Gilbert & Barker's first names?

Before you write any story about G&B please contact me. I have proof that they did not start making gas pump in 1910 as all their literature and annual reports state. They actually began selling pumps in at least 1901 (2001 may be their 100 anniversary of maing gas pumps). It wasn't until 1910 that that they decided to patent their products, that is where the 1910 date comes from. I have identified almost 15 itemes that they manufactured before 1910. For more details email me or call me at: jhsim@swbell.net
