I've been researching the Dickson family, who they ran a number of pubs in London from the early 1900's. (James) Arthur Dickson was the father and he had two sons
Arthur George Dickson and Ernest Edwin Dickson, all involved in the
brewery trade.

The sources for brothers Arthur and Ernest are from the Electoral Rolls found on
Ancestry.
Sources for Father Arthur, were censuses and PO Directory.
It's amazing how many pubs are no longer operating
and how the names of roads have changed over the years.
