In 1939 at 50 Gold street are
Charles A Ward, Publican, born 27 Dec 1872
Ann Ward, Domestic Duties, born 24 Feb 1867
The last landlord and landlady of The Rabbit, Gold Street, Cambridge was my stepfather and my mother - Joe Lenehan and Audrey Lenehan. That was up to around 1969. I lived there with them until I joined the WRAF in July 1969. *
