hiya, i found one on King st, called navel volunteer? big white building with blue ribbon on front, is that it? so king st was hotwells? Julie

I just found a picture if it...........and lost it....I'll tryagain ! ( They serve a good proper traditional pint ! )

oohhhh esta, wasnt even sure if hotwells rd, existed!! LOL, excuse my ignorance, if its the same pub then, maybe, certainly given me something to ponder on, wonder if i google it???? thanks Julie

I don't wish to confuse things and I don't know if it's much help but when it comes to the pub....I'm wondering if it's the Navel Volunteer which is ( still ) Hotwells.......I know it's a very old building that dates back a very long time ( 1700's ).......Now adays it'scalled 'The Volly' but I think it's full name is the royal Navel Volunteer...

hiya ann, thanks very much, will keep note of info, and have a look at site, any other offers???? anyone??? Julie

Volunteer, Lawrence Hill Some landlord(s) as listed in directories, etc: Charles Llewellin* 1844 + 52 Joseph Jarrett* 1861 Volunteer, Milk Street Bronzed gas fittings were stolen from the premises in May 1850.

ooops sorry i forgot that bit, the pub was the 'volunteer' on what looks like hotwell rd???? clifton parish/bristol HTH julie

Is it me eyes, but I cant see a Pub name there?

hiya nell, i doubt it, but you can try, her name was Frances Lockyer, (nee Graves) b.1841 uffculme devon, married Robert Lockyer, and had a daughter Louisa Locker, someone found frances mistranscribed on 1881 cen, i have her on 1891, in pub, all details after this are a mystery, (robert died in 1876) louisa b.1863 broadhembury, devon. like i say you can try but i very much doubt you'll find them Julie

I wonder if you could post any details of the pub you are looking for or the people?

hiya, tracey, i guess i'm doing something wrong, all i'm getting is a zap search engine, is this what you meant? help!!!!!! Julie
