1871/Emily Cass Holcomb/Grand Daughter/11/London/Census
Emily Cass Stephenson (my great great grandmother) was the grand daughter of
Ambrose Frost of the White Swan, Exning.
(Ambrose Frost had a daughter Lucy, who married James Holcomb, son of Anthony
Holcomb, the bailiff at Chippenham Hall, who lived to be 98 and was feted as
Chippenham's oldest resident when he died in 1890. James and Lucy Holcomb moved
to London where they had two daughters, and kept a beer house called the
Jolly
Butcher. James died young, and the family moved back to the Newmarket area,
where Lucy went into service and the two daughters lived with their
grandparents. Emily Holcomb went to live with Ambrose and Lucy Frost at the
White Swan in Exning. She subsequently married Charles James Stephenson, and
they kept the Carpenter's Arms in Station Road Wood Ditton / Newmarket. Charles
James Stephenson died in 1919). William Charles Stephenson was my great great
uncle; which makes him the SON of Charles James Stephenson and Emily Cass
Stephenson (nee Holcomb) ... so what we actually see at the Bull in the early
1920s is a mother succeeding her son!! *
