Smokey Hall

[Byrdale]

Hi

My gggrandfather was living at Smokey hall, Rickmansworth in the 1881 census.

I've tried to Google it and have come up empty, is there anyone that can tell me anymore about this place please

Many Thanks

Do you have a name and Census Ref for your relative's Entry on the 1881 Census?

Hi

Frank Paddick published a number of articles about the local Croxley Green / Rickmansworth area

There is an article about Smokey Hall, written by Mr Paddick, published (195x?) in the Rickmansworth Historian.
Rickmansworth Museum ( &/or the Ricky HS ) may have more on the subject.

The article is too long to post on RootsChat.(Over 5500 words)
If you pm me with your email address I'll pass you on a copy (of the article)

Next door to "The Sportsman" pub, which is still there, run by lovely people, serving good ale.

Ok, - I'm with you now Ray.

(I'm in Rickmansworth, & wondered why I hadn't heard of it, - but it sounds as though you already have it sorted:-)

Best Wishes, Romilly.
