Greetings,
My Great Great Great Grandfather Henry Colgate lived in Bletchingley. In the 1871 Census he was a brewers drayman,the first line of the census form where it say's street or name of house,it has Unwins.I would love to know if there are any records of brewers employees that worked in Bletchingley. Would be very grateful for any help.
Henry was born in Tonbridge Kent in 1826.The rumour goes that he eloped and married a Charlotte Jeal on 1st March 1846 in Bletchingley.They lived in Nutfield for a time as my Gt Gt Grandmother was born there.They then moved to Bletchingley.Henry and Charlotte had 10 children.In the 1851 census Henry worked as an Agriculture Labourer.In 1861 he was a Labourer in a Brewery,and lived in Brewer Street.In 1871 he was a Brewers Drayman,and Unwins was mentioned of the street or road.
Kind Regards, Maureen
