James Brierley, who lived at, and was the proprietor of, ‘The Rose & Crown’
at 71 Torriano Avenue from about 1910 until his death there on the 11th March 1917;
and was
my mother’s mother’s first husband. (His wife (my g-grandmother), Lydia

register of 1918.) *

earlier 1901 census as being at 22 Venice Street, Bethnal Green - the
