My great grandparents ran the Robin Hood pub in Bishop’s Stortford in the later 19th century. They were James and Dorinda Jackson. Their son James was my great grandfather and his son Arthur, my grandfather, used to go and stay in the Robin Hood when he was a boy. After James and Dorinda died in about 1953/52, their unmarried daughter Elizabeth Ann Jackson carried on as a publican in the area. I don’t know whether this was still at the Robin Hood. Does anyone have any photos of James and Dorinda, or of their son James or of any of the Jackson family?

My grandfather, Daniel Talbot, lived in West Green Road, Tottenham in the 1950-70s. The address is also recorded as West Green Lanes on some of his children's birth certificates. I have been unable to locate his house but know from the 1960 census that it lay about 20 houses away from 'Sprat Row or Suffolk Place, West Green' and also The Black Boy Inn. I have been unable to work out which direction the census enumerator walked, although his journey started at Hangers Lane, followed by the Tile Kilns. Can anyone with a knowledge of old Tottenham help?
