The licensee in 1806 was recorded on the Alehouse Recognizances as Jeremiah Howes, at the Fox, Bartlow Hamlet.
I am researching my family history and Charles Barrett is my great-great-great grandfather. According to the
Bartlow 1861 census; he was the inn keeper of the Fox Inn and the family (who were all born in Ashdon) are as follows :
Elizabeth/wife/40; Sarah/daughter/16 ; George/son/13 ; Julia/daughter/11 Zebulan/son/7 ;
Kitturah Eliza/daughter/5; Deborah/daughter/4 ; Charles/son/2 ; Alice/daughter/9 months
John Woodrow/lodger/widower/farrier/Hay Burrow, Norfolk
George Barrett is my great grandfather, who had a son Thomas who was killed in San Sebastian, Spain in 1924 and as my father was only 8 years old at the time, any information I have found so far has been from the internet. I have Thomas birth certificate and (death documents which are all in Spanish!). I have the 1851 census results for the family, but their address is given as : Church End .
I would like to know Charles and Elizabeths date of marriage and where, but have not managed to trace it, nor the date of their deaths. I have tried to trace Thomas King, who I presume is Elizabeths father without success.
The 1871 census shows the family as being at the Fox Inn (Bartlow census) :
Charles Barrett/50/Innkeeper ; Elizabeth/wife/49 ; Julia/daughter/19 ;
Keturah/daughter/16 Charles/son/13 ; Alice/daughter/10 ; Lizzie/daughter/8/Bartlow
Hamlet ; Georgiana/daughter/2/Bartlow Hamlet ; Thomas
King/father-in-law/widower/79 Former soldier/Bartlow Hamlet
Any information you may have about the family would be gratefully received
