Hi, Shaun ... thanks for replying to my post.  I'd love to see a photo of the Royal Oak in 1870 - actually, I'd love to see anything you have about my step-grandmother's family (Megan Evans and her mother, Margaret Evans).  How are you connected?  Looking forward to hearing from you.  Jan

Hi, Lesley ... thanks for this great information. 

Yes, my grandfather was a butcher in Flint - William Evans Rhodes.  On the death of his wife, Megan went to live in his house as his housekeeper to help in looking after my father, Arthur William.  My grandfather and Megan eventually married. 

Where are you located?  I came to Canada with my family in 1967 and still reside in Calgary.  We also have a home in Phoenix where we hope to retire to some day.  We're here in Phoenix now but leave this weekend to return to Calgary - dread the thought of going back to the snow and cold!

Thanks, again.
Jan

Hello, it's been almost a year since you were on this site enquiring about the Royal Oak Inn.  I've only just registered today so hopefully this information will reach you.

Bryn Ellis helped me immensely a few years ago providing information on my step-grandmother, Megan Evans, who grew up in the area before marrying my grandfather and moving to Flint.  The information Bryn provided stated that Megan's father, John Ellis Evans, took over the tenancy of the Royal Oak in 1912 and then the licence was transferred to Megan's mother, Margaret Evans, in 1924.  As you know, the Royal Oak was closed in 1938.

Hope this helps!
