Barrett's in Fulham/Hammersmith
My Grandfather was Charles Alfred Barrett born at the Duke of York pub, Perrers Road, South Hammersmith in 1915. He had an older brother George and a younger brother Fred. (George was killed in WW2).
My Great Grandfather was called George Henry Barrett and he owned and ran the pub. It was a teashop when the Barrett's purchased it - then they turned it into an ale house and it is still a pub today!
I know that the family came from Skibereen in Cork - but I have no idea how far back from George Henry that is (was he born in London or Ireland???) I also know that his mother was a McCarthy and she definately was from Skibereen.
Does anyone know any more???
