I've been researching the Dickson family,
who they ran a number of pubs in London from the early 1900's. (James) Arthur Dickson was the father and he had two sons
Arthur George Dickson and Ernest Edwin Dickson, all involved in the
brewery trade. ***

Arthur Dickson is managing the
Champion Arms,
Kingsland road by 1911; it is likely that he was at the
George IV, Poplar in 1895
prior to being here.
Mrs Emma Cracknell was at the
Drill, Squirrels Heath,
Hornchurch until about 1906.
