Wiltshire / Re: Perrys of The Pelican Inn Devizes Wiltshire
« on: Monday 10 July 17 14:55 BST (UK)  »
I'm just looking at who worked in the Pelican in Devizes in the past and came across your interesting contribution. If some of this needs correcting or you have more details, please let me know.

These are from local directories:
e.g Pigots 1822 ref : http://www.wiltshire-opc.org.uk/Items/Devizes/Devizes%20-%20Pigots%201822.pdf

Current Location       1822      1830       1842            1855
9 Market Place
Pelican Inn       Wm. Perry     Horatio Nelson  William Joyce   John Howse
                                                      Perry

I know that Thomas Perry was an innkeeper in 1793-8 (It may have been the pelican but can't prove it yet). However from

http://www.wiltshire-opc.org.uk/Items/Southbroom/Southbroom%20-%20Baptisms%201775-1799.pdf

Thomas Perry was the father of Horatio Nelson Perry (see 29th jan 1798 baptism).

PS Southbroom is next to the Green in Devizes 3 roads east of Market Place.
