Thanks, Appleby, I'm really grateful for that. It's the first time I've seen the actual place any of my ancestors (before my grandparents) lived in. Smith was living in that pub in 1881 with his wife Margaret Ann (nee Hansom). The picture reminds me of streets I remember when I was a girl. I wonder what year it was taken?

my ancesters had this pub in 1871/2 ish, this is the first time i have ever seen it!
many thanks for adding it on here.
(by the way they were james fryirs and his wife matilda nee howe. they had several pubs around scarborough town during their lifetime)

just one thing, where it says blue bell, i am sure that it also says 1896, can anyone throw any light on this? am i seeing this correctly?
if so this may not be the original blue bell pub........

it's strange to think Tina's ancestors and mine both lived in this pub. I love the picture of it (thanks again appleby) - I've got it on my desktop as a screensaver. Tina, I don't know what your family history is, but going on Smith Darling's story I think this pub could have told some amazing stories. Smith is one of my ancestors that I'd really have loved to meet - I may not have any famous ancestors, but I certainly have a whole load of rebels and eccentrics.

hi lesley,
i am born and bred in scarborough going back at least 10 generations and counting. (my daughter and grandaughter were also born here).
if you were born in scarborough around 1800's then you are probably related to everyone. i am ceratinly related to myself at least once! (have not worked out what cousin i am to my self, might be interesting.  lol!)
until the railways came to scarborough and brought new blood into the town, alot of 'cousins' married 'cousins' i always say THATS the reason i am so nutty!  lol! (well you have to be to do this hobby which can be sooooo frustrating and exciting at the same time!)
happy hunting
tina
