Victoria Hotel 25 South Street

[Guest Skipindave]

Can any member of this list help me to find any mention of the above pub or hotel,these are the facts I have at the moment.

1861 census 15 South Street,Victoria Hotel,Joseph Myers,head,Comb Manufacturer,and family (no mention of victualler)

1871 census 25 South Street,(no mention of hotel)the same Joseph Myers and family,still Comb Manft.

1881 Census 25&27 South Street,now Victoria House,same Joseph Myers making Combs.

1889 Joseph Myers cocks his clogs.

1891 Census 25 South Street,Victoria Hotel,Joseph Myers,son of,is Hotel Keeper and Comb Manufaturer.

Can't find them on the 1901 or 1911 as yet. This one is not on your list of pubs, in 1891 it does warrant 3 family members as Waiters.

Could this have been a house and as and when they thought fit,used it as a hotel.

Any thoughts on this puzzle would be gratefully received

Some directory entries from http://www.sheffieldrecordsonline.org.uk/

White's 1849: Samuel GILMAN Coffee roaster Court, 7 Angel Street; h. 25 South Street, Park

White's 1852: Samuel GILMAN Coffee roaster Yd. 9 Angel Street; h. 25 South Street, Park

Kelly's 1893: Edward HOWARD Beer retailer 25 South Street, Park

White's 1919: James TOWNLEY Herbalist 25 South Street, Park

Kelly's 1925: Mrs Mary TOWNLEY 25 South Street, Park

The 1893 entry suggests that it was a pub then, but it seems not to be by 1919
