Alsager pubs
« on: Tuesday 30 March 10 17:00 BST (UK) »
I have an ancestor, Charles Pemberton-who's listed as a 'Farmer and Licensed Victualler' in the 1901 Census-address: 'Longview', Alsager. Near Lawton Road.  Does anyone know if there was a public house at that place?

As far as I know, Alsager is in Cheshire- but Wikipedia says it has a Staffordshire postcode   ;)

Away sorting out DNA matches... I may be gone for some time many years!

Wilcoxon,
I haven't used Kelly's Directories before and wonder if there is one for Cheshire between 1932 and 1938.
I am looking for a needle in a haystack!
Herbert Price was a PC and from Oct 1925 was stationed at Christleton.  He retired in July 1935 and according to his daughter's marriage cert, in 1941, he was deceased and a retired licensed victualler.  He was deceased having died in Oct 1938.
I would love to find out which pub and think it could have been in Chester where he was a PC or Crewe where he was buried.
Does anyone know of books about pubs in those areas in the 1930s?  I have googled but with not much luck,
Thanks for your time,
Abiam2

A bit earlier than 1930 but lots of good details.

It`s worth contacting Chester Heritage Centre. Lots of resources there, they may possible have Directories
