I can confirm that the Sephton Family did run the Boat Inn On Blackhorse Rd.  My name is also Sephton and I am in some way related to them. I remember visiting there yearly as a child.  My father Hugh edward  was the son of Edward Sephton who I believe also ran another Pub.. (name escapes me) He had a sister Joan Sephton who died around 1980 and an Aunt Lizzie who was a retired school teacher and died at the age of 92  I believe it was around 1975-76.  I have the Sephton Family bible at home which was passed down to me and that has a incomplete list in the back of All sephtons in the Bedworth/Coventry area born and when they died.  I believe the only desendants left are myself and my son John who resides in london.  If there is any other Info I can hel with I will try and assist.

Just in case the line from the Greyhound is not the one you are looking for, I too am a Sephton, but my Sephtons came from the south and were not anything to do with the boats, my grandfather was william who married Violet Elizabeth, he had a sister Annie and they all lived in the Paradise area of Coventry, it is proving tough but happy to collaborate.
