All, As many of you are aware, I run a Historical Pubs site. This is quite useful to those with Pubby people, but is slowly expanding to include those who just want to know an address. The site covers historical pubs for all of Essex, London, Herts, Kent, Suffolk, and parts of Sussex and Middlesex. Many of these areas / counties have slowly been split into new sites, but I have managed to get the local search engine to search all of these sites. So, for example, my main interest is in Wilding & Littlechild, you can search most of the South East of England for these names, as far as pubs are concerned. You can also search for a particular street address, in the same search engine, still far from perfect, but hey ho. Finally, I will spend an immense amount of time on one pub / area, if there is new information. Especially non-copyright pictures (gold dust). Site : http://londonpublichouse.com Enjoy, and help make it better - it's all free. Best kevan

If anyone is researching this name Re: Leyton, Essex, NSW Australia, London, Birmingham, Russia, Warsaw, Poland, Newcastle, Liverpool, USA or Canada please email me and I may be able to help with data. I'm particularly interested in linking the Australian, retired merchant, Levy Mandelson, living in 'Upstairs, Downstairs' style opulence in a mansion in Clarnicarde Gardens, Chelsea (with wife Sarah, nee Cohen, their 11 children and 5 servants - 1881 census) with 1. An identification of the three Samuel Mandelsons I've found in 20th century UK 2. Lady Judith Montefiore (nee Cohen) wife of Sir Moses Montefiore (Lord Rothschild's stockbroker) 3. Her sister, Baroness Hannah/Henrietta Rothschild (nee Cohen), who married Nathan Mayer Rothschild . I'm tracing various lines which end in a bit of confusion because they lead back to Samuels - and there were 3 or 4 of them, one was Australian, born in c 1875 and the son of Levy - but which of the 20th century Samuels is he? Thanks for your help. Colleen

Good on you Kevin. I have pub people and have found the site really good. It is good that you have taken over from Pubby who is sorely missed.
