The 1891 census shows that Matilda Bliss was the publican at the
Kings Head Tap,
Harrow. Matilda and he husband John Bliss had been publicans at the White
Horse Inn in Rotherhithe Road 10 years earlier. John’s family had been
publicans in harrow for 100 years before this. And distant members of the
family made a fortune selling wines and spirits before off licenses became
the norm.
However John died, and so Matilda moved back to Harrow and with her
daughters Matilda and Edith, were at the pub in 1891. **
