I'm looking for information or maybe early photos from before 1900 of the Hearts of Oak pub in Drybrook, formerly the New Inn. One of my ancestors George Moore (born about 1837 and married to a Mary Roberts with kids Mary Jane (Jane), John, Tryphena Ann, Albert, Bertha, Hubert, Edith, Clara (my great great grandmother) and Allan)supposedly ran this New Inn (as a Inn Keeper before and after 1881 and 1891)for a number of years. I'm wondering if there are any early photos of him or the Inn back in those dates, or any interesting history or anecdotes of it and/or George. I have already found a modern photo of it on the net. Emailed pictures would be great if anyone has them on a computer already (but probably a long shot).
George's parents were John and Mary Moore. Clara married William Rawlings (from Ruardean)and had 13 kids I believe.
