Hi,
I`m trying to find out about a woman called Polly Goodrich who lived and worked in The Roebuck Inn in the early 1880`s[cenus 1881].Does anyone know who she married?.I would also like to find out a liitte bit about The Roebuck Inn,can anyone point me the right direction?



Thanks

Steve
 
I don`t know.I think she may have married a Hales {my family} and would have had least one child Sidney.They may have moved have moved to Newport [Wales} to work in the steel industry.I know Sidney married in Newport 1913.

Polly is the nickname for Mary and there is a Mary Jane Goodrich born Birmingham 1860.ref 6d 20
The Roebuck Inn although census Aston is in Erdington
The pub is still there on the high street which now runs parralell with Suttton road.
there is a Sidney Hales registered Pontypool(not far from Newport) 1891 ref 11a 175 may be worth getting the certificate
 
Alberta thanks for that.I`d got the Polly/Mary name already,and had checked out the Sidney Hales you mentioned before, you .I don`t think hes the one I`m looking for though.Nice to know the Roebuck Inn is still going.


many thanks
