My great grandfather, Samuel ALLEN was a publican and was in various pubs in the area at different times. He was resident at the WHITE SWAN 184 Moseley Street, Aston Birmingham in 1900. I know that this area was called Deritend at the time, a historical area of Birmingham first mentioned in 1276. *
On 11th April 1897, George Alfred Reece Allen is baptised to Samuel Allen, licensed victualler in Moseley street and Emma Ann Stockdale Allen; at Deritend St John Baptist. He was born on the 20th February, 1897.
