Robert Bessey, born 1830, was one of the sons of John Bessey,
licensee of the LORD
COLLINGWOOD.
In 1856 he his given as licensee of a beerhouse at
North Quay.
In the 1861 he is described as a licensed victualler living at 17 North
Quay and in the 1871 census the address is given as 2 Goffins Lane and the
house is named the PRINCESS ALEXANDER.
The ONLY confirmation of Robert Bessey being at the PRINCESS ALEXANDER is
from the 1871 census.
It is currently uncertain if the Goffins Lane address applies to the same house as
the North Quay one. |
