The 1851 Census shows a relative of mine, Jane Cole, as being the proprietor
of Brewers Arms, Watford, Bushey. I discovered a photo of the Brewers Arms
which gives the address as 233 High Street. It existed from 1839 - 1911 when
it was demolished. The 1841 census shows Jane and Husband James, who is
listed as a Publican, in The Town, Watford. I wonder if they were at the
same Pub? ***

William Newberry is my father's grandfather and the publican at the Brewers
Arms, from 1881 to sometime after 1902. Susan Newberry died and William then
remarried Alice Smith. Six years later William passed away and as far as I
know Alice stayed with the pub for a period of time before remarrying and
then coming out to Australia. *
