Hello Matt
I don't have any information on Ann Offord, but I do have Offord's connected to my family tree.

The earliest I have is Samuel Offord b 1770 Essex. In 1841 he was the Publican of Cherry Tree Public House,Little Stambridge, Rochford Essex. He died 1849 Rochford.

His son, also Samuel b 1800 Rochford, took over as publican of the Cherry Tree. Samuel Offord ( son )  gave up the Cherry Tree (last record 1867), and died 1868.

There may be a connection there ?

Just a snippet of information if your Offord was landlord of the Cherry Tree pub - it is now run by Jamie Olivers uncle - Trevor Oliver.

Hiya

Thanks for that. I haven't done any work on the Offords for a while but it would be very interesting if it was the same pub.

I'm a Rochford girl born and bred, and as far as I am aware, that's the only Cherry Tree.

Give them a ring - it's in Stambridge Road, Rochford.   I'm sure they'd be happy to tell you it's history.

Well this gets more and more interesting! Stambridge Road is featured in my Offord  tree.

just found my Offord tree and the link! Samuel was Ann Offord's uncle (I have him born bef1774 which fits with what you have). I've also found a list of Offords who were publicans in the area in my files as well. I think I have them on the census as well.

Thanks again for the info. I'd love to know if there exists a photo of the Cherry Tree Inn from this time.

Hi Matt,

You can find plenty of photos of the Cherry Tree by going on to Google "images" and typing in  - "Cherry Tree" Rochford - in the search field.
The conservatory is a new addition but the rest is still the same.

If you Google "map" it, the postcode is  SS4 2AF.

The phone number is 01702 - 544426.

The food is good too if you're in the area!
