crazykimbo   10 #1 Posted January 29, 2015 Anyone know where I can get some information on the Matilda Tavern in central sheffield. Am told that my great gran used to sing in the tap room- not sure if she owned it or just worked there.It would be around 1900! Have looked all over for info but come to a dead end. THANKS.

crazykimbo   10 #4 Posted January 29, 2015 Thanks, very useful! Looks like she was not the landlord. Hmm, makes things much more difficult though.  ---------- Post added 29-01-2015 at 23:33 ----------  Thanks Davon- interesting.
