    3. Have you looked in the 1901 census? Jan -----Original Message----- From: Bennett John Sent: Tuesday, February 26, 2013 11:04 PM To: staffordshire@rootsweb.com Subject: [STAFFORDSHIRE] Burslem public house? I am trying to identify the location of a photograph thought to date to about 1903. It is of group of people, including children, with a horse drawn dray containing beer barrels from a Burslem brewery. The group is outside of an unnamed licensed premises with a lamp projecting over the doorway. Above the door the lintel is engraved 'WINES'. Below this a glass panel inscribed ' Joseph Hambleto(n?) Licensed to sell Ale ... to be consumed on the premises'. The photographer is from Burslem and the dray driver is known to have lived in or near Nile Street, Burslem. Searches in directories and censuses have failed to find the named licensee. I wonder if anyone on the list has knowledge of this person to identify the public house location or can suggest a means of tracing him. Thank you. ****************************** ATTENTION TO ALL:- When replying please remove the details that do not apply to your mail and change the SUBJECT LINE for best useage of ARCHIVED MATERIALS. ****************************** PLEASE keep your Anti-Virus and Anti-Malware software up to date.
