Guest Jeremy Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 Looking at the Chequers or Old Cow (Beerhouse) posting, I think that these are two different places. White's 1833 directory has: Jane Alsop, vict. Chequers, 43 Coalpit Lane John Renwick, Old Cow beerhouse, 64 Coalpit Lane The 1837 directory also has: Jane Alsop, vict. Chequers, 43 Coalpit Lane John Renwick, beerhouse, 64 Coalpit Lane But then, Robson's 1839 directory has: A. Alsop, Beer Retailer, 64 Coalpit Lane Jno. Renwick, pen & pocket knife manufacturer & beer retailer, 12 Coalpit Lane It looks that Coalpit Lane was renumbered between 1837 and 1839; #43 became #64, and #64 became #12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you for untangling that one ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RichardB Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 Nice to see a clear intelligent mind at work Jeremy, mine left the planet about the time I had 10,000 publicans and I couldn't work out what to do with them all - brain still missing, data, however, still doing a good job.
