The Era 08 October 1865 - transfer of licences:
Marquis of Salisbury, Freeling street, James Young to Alfred Robert Redcup
The wonderfully named Alphonso Sigismund Redrup died at the
Shakespeare Head
in 1874, aged 33. He was a licensed victualler in the 1871 census, living at
10 Upper Freeling Street, Islington (the Marquis of Salisbury). He died of
Brights Disease. ***
His brother John Jesse Redrup and sister Emma Sarah Redrup were also at the
Shakespeares Head at the time of Alphonso’s death (according to probate and
death certificate) but in 1871 they were at the
Constitution Tavern in the
Kings Road, John Jesse being a licensed victualler. ***
John Jesse Redrup, having spent many years as a farmer in rural
Buckinghamshire, died in 1915 as the publican of the
Queens Head, Sawston,
Cambridgeshire. You have his wife Evangeline Patty Redrup noted there from
the 1916 Kellys directory. John Jesse was listed in the 1911 census in
Sawston as licensed victualler but perhaps wasn’t living at the pub. The
address was just High Street. ***
You have another brother already noted at the Marquis of Salisbury, Freeling
Street, Islington, in 1866 and 1869 (Albert Robert Redrup). He also died
young, only 33, in 1869. Alphonso took over after his brother’s death, as
his address in 1871 is 10 Upper Freeling Street, as noted above. ***
