James Benton was running the
George the IVth from at least April 1881 (census) - May 1887 (when his
daughter got married). By the time another daughter, Lily Ethel was baptised
in September 1888 he was at the
Blue Anchor, 251 Southwark Park Road. Latterly, he was at the Kings
Arms, 96 High Street, Wandsworth by 1911. James Benton died here on the 14th
January 1915, leaving £547 to his son Albert Frederick Benton, who then ran
the pub until at least 1934. ***
