Carpenters Arms, 80 Princess Street, Marylebone NW8

Marylebone index

At 18 Princess Street in 1869. Between 1895 and 1899, this section of Princess street disappears from street directory listings, and appears to have been later renamed Boscobel street. It looks like the area is being rebuilt about this time, and the licensees move to alternative premises.

According to family history records: Joseph Heaviside (the son in 1851 census) was licensee of The Pump at 7 Paul Street, Portman Market from 1869 until his death from tuberculosis on 17 February 1870. His wife took over managing the pub until 2 April 1871 when she sold it and moved with her family to Aston Abbotts, Bucks where she became school mistress at the parish church school.
At an earlier time, Joseph’s father – also Joseph – was licensee of theExeter Arms in Marylebone ( before 1837 - his year of death); after his death this was taken over by his wife Isabella Heaviside (nee Kemp). She later had the Carpenters Arms (before 1860) and was assisted by her son, Joseph Heaviside. ***

Israel was a West country man born in Plymouth in 1816, who was a tailor in the 1841 Census. By 1851 he was in Ireland in the Army , presumably as a tailor of uniforms, where Sarah was born in Tipperary. Benjamin was born at sea on a troopship HMS Alipore in the Bay of Biscay. In 1862 Israel Griffin is the licensed victualler at the Carpenters Arms Marylebone, and by 1871, his son Ben is a barman. By the 1881 census, Benjamin, Sarah and George are running the Royal Vauxhall tavern, at 212 Upper Kennington Lane. *
