Hi Monica,

That sounds right, on my article it is spelt Craigiehall St not Craighall St, she was fined at the Plantation police court Govan.
I did not know that on some Scottish documents that married women also used their maiden names, thank you for that, that could help in my research.

Thank you Istrice.

Hi Monica thank you for your reply

I got the information on the business from the Glasgow Herald Archive. It says that Ann Thomson tenant of an ice cream shop in Craigiehall Street was fined for selling liquor. Ann Thomson was the estranged wife of Bennett Tazzar, I know that at one time Bennett and Ann did have an ice cream shop in Glasgow.

On the 1885 valuation rolls Bennett is down as the proprietor of a lodging house on main St, and Ann is a lodging house keeper on Main St on the 1881 census living with their 2 younger children.

On censuses and valuation rolls Ann swaps between her married name and maiden name even though Bennett's name is on the same document.

Lanarkshire / Italian Ice Cream Sellers in Glasgow

Hi,
I am trying to find any information I can about my 3rd Gt Grandfather Bennett Tazzar who was a hokey pokey man in Glasgow from the 1860's to the 1880's. He was located around the Gallowgate and Saltmarket area where he also had lodging houses, I am mainly interested in trying to find out about his ice cream business. My 3rd Gt Grandfather and his wife Ann Thomson ended up opening an ice cream and sweet shop in this area.
Would anyone be able to tell me where I might be able to find any information about this.
