James Bushnell (who ran the Market house for over 30 years) and Charles Ashby (who had the Perseverance before his son Arthur George Ashby) were my grandmother's great uncle & uncle respectively. Her cousin Arthur George is mentioned in the Haverhill Echo of June 16th 1934, unfortunately due to a meeting of his creditors mentioning liabilities of £1211 and assets of £744 ***
