The Red Lion

 We received this charming picture and the following email the other day with the sender, Beatrice, wondering if anyone had any more details about Alice Tomlinson and why she would have had this made for her....

Over to Beatrice...

"Hello,

My GGGGrandmother Alice Tomlinson was the landlady of the Red Lion in 1881 on the census.  The address was 52 Manchester Road which I know is the  Red Lion's address.  She wasn't there in 1871 and she died 1883.  Like to know when she became the landlady if possible.  One of her sons Ralph Tomlinson went to the U.S.A. his relatives have a teacup or it may be a mug with an inscription on which reads Mrs.Tomlinson, Red Lion, Hyde.  I wonder if anyone can tell me about this.

Kind regards,
Beatrice. "

 I do hope someone can shed some light on this for her.

Many Thanks for sharing it with us, Beatrice ! :)
