I would be eternally grateful if anyone could locate a photo of Bert Wilson, landlord/proprietor of (first c1901) the Court Restaurant on Corporation Street (now Yates's bar opposite the law courts) and (second, certainly there in 1913-14) the White Lion on Horse Fair.

Bert was my grandfather's brother. He was killed in 1914, thrown from a new horse on the Bristol Road.

I've never seen a photo of him.

Any other info on Bert would also be helpful. I have census information and coroners reports of his death.
