Easy Row, City Pubs
In 1837 Sarah Welch was a minor from Easy Row, Birmingham, "a publican's daughter." Her father, William Welch, was described as a Publican. Sarah married Edwin Withers, 5 Oct 1837, at St Thomas church, Birmingham. I cannot locate any pub in Easy Row earlier than the Woodman where she may have lived, probably with her father. I believe the Woodman began c1890s, but what was in Easy Row earlier, say 1830-1840?
I have traced Edwin to 15, Albion St where he stayed with Sarah’s brother, Samuel Welch, a commercial traveller. Sometimes he is variously described. Early on he was a butcher, then in 1830 at 2 Court St, as a servant; later in 1842 a "cook shop" in his wife’s eating house.
Any clues to accommodation or pubs in Easy Row c1837, please?
