1882/Mrs Elizabeth Sanson/../../../Post Office Directory ****

Thomas Easman was my Great Great Grandfather. His name appears in the census returns,  However his brother in law (by his first wife Jane Isabella Jones) also my Great Great Grandfather was William Jones whose name appears as the licensee in 1895. I wasn't aware he was a licensee and would have been about 68 in 1895. I have a photo of William who had been in the Royal Navy and became a coastguard officer in Suffolk before retiring and moving to Aldenham Herts where he appears in the 1891 census as a retired naval pensioner aged 65, and then Elstree in the 1901 census. **

William Jones in his coastguard uniform. I am not sure but think his medals may be Royal Navy long service/good conduct and the Baltic Medal for service in the Baltic theatre of operations during the Crimean War.
