I have only just seen this posting but I have found the following website to be very helpful

www.norfolkpubs.co.uk

Not sure if your relative was in this part of East Anglia but you could give it a try. My own search provided me with a list of all the publicans from 1830 to the present day.

That's an interesting one Perchino - thank you.

(It even mentions coffee houses and one of my other ancestors ran one of those ...)

Does anyone know if such a thing exists? I found some information for victuallers in Warwickshire but I am looking for info in East Anglia.

Many thanks
