James Freeman Randall - licensed victualler
Kindly provided by Robert Randall
My great great grandfather, James Freeman Randall (1843-1888) ran the Bull pub in Cross Street, Woolwich from
some time about 1878 and had previously had the
Crown & Anchor, in Sheerness.
His son (my great grandfather) married Annie Turrell, the daughter of Robert
Turrell (1834-1917) who ran the Swan Inn in Charlton village from the 1870s
until he retired and moved to Clacton some time after 1901. Robert Turrell's
granddaughter (my grandfather's cousin) married the son of John Boyd who ran
the Antigallican in Woolwich in the 1880s. He also died at some point in the
1880s and for a short while the pub was run by his widow, Eliza, until she
remarried in 1891. ***
