Davis Family Butchers
By Sara Brooks
Butcher shops between the wars
My family ran several butcher shops in Brighton between the wars. My grandfather Frederick Charles Davis had seven sons and three daughters. At least one son, Walter Stanley Walter Stanley Davis also owned his own shops, one in Gloucester Road and another in Gardener Street. My Grandfather was a master butcher.
Location of the shops?
I think one of his shops was in Kensington Gardens. All of his sons worked in the trade: My father Philip Thomas Cole Davis, Arthur Henry, Henry Edward, William Richard (Jim), Francis Albert (Tony) and Charles Frederick (Charlie) I am trying to trace where the shops were.
I really would welcome any help you can give. Please leave a comment below.
