The Rose Pub

A Memory of Great Yarmouth.

There is a public house on the front right of this photo. If you look closely, you will see it is named "The Rose" and the initials GWJ are above the door. My great-grandfather, George William Jones, owned this pub at the time this photo was taken. George died in 1896 and his wife, Annie Rowell Jones came to America with two of his children, Edith and George, who was my grandfather. A third child, Norah Rowell Jones, stayed in England with her maternal grandparents, the Rowells in Peterborough. It is believed Norah married someone named Hirst and they had children. We always wondered what happened to them and whether they survived the bombing in WWII.
