My Gx5 grandfather Steed Drury (or Drewery) was supposed to be a publican

He was born c1762 Of Deal, married in Deal in 1787 and also had a child christened in Elham that same year {1787}.
By 1797 he had a child christened in Hawkinge. He died in Hawkinge in 1832  ***

Steed's Widow's name is Hannah.
In 1839, when one of Steed's & Hannah's Daughters, Harriet, married in 1839 - Steed's occupation was recorded as a Publican - although he was deceased [1832}. ***
