I thought I had a copy of this.  But now cannot find it, if I did.

So can someone please have a look in it for a William and Catherine Smith - Beer House Keeper
possibly of the Earl Russell Tavern in 1881.

I have them on the Census in 1881 and they are living at No. 60 Russell Street and he is a Beer house Keeper.  He sadly dies within months of this census and his wife goes on to marry the lodger :)
