Many of the more astute licensed victuallers were involved in the Licensed Victuallers Association. This association was an insurance  to protect families in times of hardship. The licensed victuallers association offered this, to their own family, or members of an extended family.

Here is the first article on researching a pub, My next article on research of a pub will start to explain the differences between the different areas of London and the South East, and why some areas had lots of pubs, and some had none. I have a massive interest in history of any old building, whether it be a pub, a church, or any other landmark that is identifiable in history. My latest site on London history continues to build as I try and make sense of some of this.
