The London, Essex, Kent, Middlesex, Surrey, Suffolk & Herts Directory - including Historical Pubs, in the South East of England

Do you want to purchase the londonpublichouse.com web site name? All my business is moving to deadpubs.co.uk and the OLD site name is FOR SALE. This is because lunarpages.com have deleted my site three times in as many months, so I am moving the sites to an UK provider.

6/12/1873/Richard Aldous/Beer Retailer/../../Petty Sessions ****

Elizabeth Jermy from Norfolk, met and married Richard Aldous and by 1874 the pair were settled in the Volunteer in Barking. When Richard died, as the result of falling from scaffolding at the pub - apparently taking ale up to workmen on the site - Elizabeth remarried, to William Nichols, 20 years her junior and little older than her own children. **

Mary Ann Jermy, Elizabeths niece, can be found at the Duke of York whilst her sister Harriet Jermy can be found at the Coopers Arms, **

Elizabeths two sisters can be found in the 1881 census, i.e. Hannah Maria Jermy is a servant at 260 Roman Road, Bow; and Eliza Jermy is housekeeper to Henry Smith at 413 Old Ford Road, Bow - later the White Hart. **

Richard Aldous was a Butcher in the 1871 census, in Barking.

I get hundreds of emails every day, fortunately most 'spam mails' are deleted by my mail scan settings. The final emails are delivered to various email addresses, and replying to these are not always successful. If you do not hear from me in a timely fashion, please feel free to email again, I do not mind! This is a pure PUBS history site, I doubt if I know where the PUBS are NOW, but try the site for where they were a hundred years ago, again enjoy!
Once you have discovered enough history of Essex; why not study to undergraduate or postgraduate level in Computer Science or Electronics Engineering at the Department of Computing and Electronic Systems, Essex University in Colchester, Essex? It is not only a great place to study, but also a foreleader in technology at an UK leading University with courses and doctoral research in Robotics, Natural Engineering, Intelligent Systems, Embedded Systems, Networking and Photonics, Laser Technology etc.
