AndyS Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Hi, Can anyone please tell me the address of the 'Yellow Lion' - I know there are probably quite a few pubs with this name but it is given as Alfred's address in a Sheffield Independent Newspaper article (dated 30 Aug 1844). It states that Alfred Hukin, landlord of the Yellow Lion, was accused of assault on two servants of a Mr Timm (maltster). I know that the 1841 census shows Alfred as being a 'silver plater' living at Daisy Bank but he changed occupation to become a landlord sometime between 1841 and 1844 (business directories and a later census show him as the landlord of the Parrot, Button Lane).

ukelele lady Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 If you look on our A to Z of pubs you will see there are 4 Yellow Lion's 12 Haymarket 59 Clifton Street , Attercliffe High Street , Unstone 1 Coal Pit Lane. I have seen Alfred Hukin somewhere at another pub but I can't remember which one it is now. The reason I took notice was because of the name Hukin, a distant ancestor. At a guess I would say it was 1 Coal Pit Lane but I'm sure some of our experts will come up with the correct answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndyS Posted February 12, 2013 Author Share Posted February 12, 2013 Hi - sorry for delay in my thanking everyone for their input - I'm out of the UK at the moment and internet service is dependant upon where I'm staying. Unfortunately I'm unable to determine the correct address but if I find out I'll make a posting. Once again, many thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
