RichardB Posted March 18, 2012 Author Share Posted March 18, 2012 Publicans has been an ongoing obsession for over five years - any and all information gratefully received then passed along to "The Boss" for processing (Ukelele Lady, that would be). P.s - Noticed also you are researching Publicans , another Gr Grandfather was called Sam Godfrey and I believe he had a couple of pubs around the Scotland street area , don't have any names though !
