Hi all
This is a little vague I'm afraid.
The names I am looking for in a business directory are Harry Rolfe and/or Selina Mary Rolfe, potentially as pub landlords.
The last known occupation I can find of Harry's are Fruiterer/Grocer/Florist in 1903 Kelly's Directory Oxfordshire.
The story goes that Harry and Selina's son, Eric Leonard took up with my great aunt (Bella who lived in Stepney). He was lodging in the home of Isabella and Solomon Smith.
Apparently during WW2 Isabella went to stay with Eric at his mum's pub.....we don't know where. I always thought it was along the river in Kent, maybe Chatham or Rochester way - but Eric and his family came from Henley so it could be that way.
I've tried looking for directories but haven't come up with anything up to now.
Any advice appreciated
Many thanks
Amanda
