The White Swan at Pease Pottage about 1861
« on: Friday 08 November 19 14:55 GMT (UK) »
I am researching William Comber and his family of Pease Pottage.  In the 1861 census William is at The White Swan, Pease Pottage.  I cannot find anything about this pub only information on The Black Swan.  Were they the same pub does anyone know.  William later became a landlord of The Grapes.
Thanks for any help.

Were they the same pub, why not ask them direct?

Not the same Swans. :-\

The Black Swan-look at census records for Stanford BARTLEY (in Slaugham).

Beerhouse?
1866 Sussex directory has Wm. Comber, beer retailer, Pease Pottage, in Slaugham.

Sad newspaper story, 9 Sep 1865, about the inquest into the death of son Caleb
SLAUGHAM.
Accidental Death by Falling into a Tank.—On Thursday last, L. G. Fullagar, Esq., held an inquest at the dwelling-house of William Comber, on the body of his son, Caleb Comber, who was drowned under the following circumstances:—Mary, the wife of William Comber, beershop keeper, deposed that the deceased was their child, and was one year and four months old. On Wednesday, about half; past one, she saw deceased go out of the tap-room door. He had a little hat in his hand, and no one was with him. A few minutes after she missed him, and sent the servant into the garden to look for him, while witness went the other way. She found him in the tank, face downwards, floating on the water. She pulled him out, and he appeared to be quite dead...(continues)

Baptism of Caleb in Slaugham in 1864 gives his father William as Beershop Keeper
