Sheffield pubs and Henry Humberstone

[GrahamTaylor]

Many thanks for all your help.  The Tyrer at 27 &29 Waingate ties in with the 1881 census when Henry Humberstone was a servant there.  It looks as though the Three Horse Shoes may have been on the corner of 190 Norfolk Street and Charles Street and it was completely destroyed in the Sheffield blitz.  Does anybody know if Norfolk Street was previously called Jehu Street as there are some references to a Three Horse Shoes on Jehu Street?  I know that Cambridge Street was originally known as Coal Pit Lane.

And yes I have found several newspaper references to Henry Humberstone including his stabbing.

Many thanks once again.  I've now used Google maps which confirms that the Three Horse Shoes was on the corner of Norfolk Street and Charles Street.  The pub with the same name on Jehu Lane just served to confuse me.  Does anybody have access to newspapers because there just has to be an obituary for him?  He also formed the brewery company on Orchard Street of 'Humberstone and Payne' but I can't find an obituary in the Sheffield Evening Telegraph.

Here is an article regarding Henry's funeral

Apologies, it won't let me upload the photo.  It's a summary of Henry's funeral which took place in the Intake Cemetery in Sheffield  - it just lists the non family attendees.
Henry Humberstone was my husband's great grandfather
