I s there anyone who has details of where licensee data/ applications can be found for Public House in Northfleet circa 1900  to 1930 ?

Have found an index of pub/ licensee data (E R Green Collection) in Gravesend Library but no flesh on the simple names and years quoted  :(

Were there not applications, in that period, from those applying to be a Pub Landlord... if so, where would they be now  ???

The Pub: The Dover Castle, Dover Road, Northfleet

Year &  Landlord: 1926 = ? Mansfield and 1909 - 1914 Charles Maxwell (aka Maxwell-Holroyd)

PS: Have ALL the 'City Ark' and 'Census' data available  :-*

Thanks

Dave

I am well aware that these messages are very old but could not resist replying in the hope that someone picks it up.
Cheers, Goldbar

Hi Goldbar

Haven't been on here in long time but, what you have said is welcome...

Thanks

This was done as a very brief 'little dig' by me for my Boss... not sure far how far he has taken up the challenge... think he has a relative who has done somewhat more research?

May be I can  put you in touch ?

I had a look on the micro fich in the Library, they don't have much on Irish History, but I came across a Ann Mansfield born May 1779 to a Alexander and Elizabeth Mansfield at Donaghmore, Tyrone.

Ireland in maps Mansfield - Maunsel

Have been on the long road back form ilness...  ::)

Glad to see you haven't given up on me... you old softie... thank you for your help  :-*

In answer to an earlier question... doubt my forebears were 'aristocrats' but more likely those forced off their land or to do the unthinkable in order to survive!

Thanks

The Irish have a long memory and times have not changed.

How very sad for you...  :'(

I like to think that there is good in every soul on this earth... somewhere

However, Good Night and God Bless to you

If you are related to Irish RC and they took the kings shilling, please go with care when looking for Irish RC relatives. It was not the done thing to take the kings shilling or join the police.

The Sin of our Forefathers... [circa 1789] cast a long shadow  ::)... did they have 'Police' in 1789?

I'll be sure to tread carefully in the 'Emerald Isle' [circa 2010] 8)

How times have changed  ???

Hi

Had a quick look at site you mention...

Am not a 'natural' historian... does it look as if the 'Landlord Mansfields' of Killygordon would have been English :'( or Irish  ???
