Nathaniel Fountain, married to Amelia Elizabeth nee Plowman (I think my
great, great, great grandparents), occupied this address as Wine Merchants as
far back as 1830. My ancestors appear to have been either coach proprietors
or in the drinks industry. I suppose in those days drinking and driving was
common-place. ***

My Great great Grandfather ,John Joseph Mason, was ,I believe the publican
of the Marquis of Granby pub in 1866. I obtained his daughter's birth
certificate and it stated she was born at 38, Percy Street, St Pancras. The
family moved to Vere Street , St Clements Danes, in 1868, where they ran The Lamb.
