Default John Cheetham Goulson and family, c1905


John Cheetham Goulson, Louisa and Edith by Glen TK2, on Flickr

This chap followed a family tradition in Lincoln, he had a grocery business and like his Grantham cousins it didn't go too well, The exact reason is unkown, rumour is that the shop takings were stolen and he was unable to pay his suppliers but that might be more rumour than truth, there are certainly no accounts anywhere to indicate the theft was reported to the police.

All Addresses are Lincoln.
1881 Census 32 Orchard St, Plumbers Apprentice
1891 Census, 38 Wellington St, Butcher
1897 26 Cheviot Street, plumber & glazier
1901 Census. 1 Motherby Lane, plumber/painter (worker)
1909 Kelly's Directory of Lincolnshire lists him at 108 Hewson Road.
1911 Adjudications and Public Examinations dated Feb and Mar show address as 108 Hewson Road and John trading as a baker/confectioner
1911 Census is 108 Hewson Road, occupation house painter.
1913 Directory of Lincoln City records him as a painter living in Fleet Street.
1919 Kelly's Directory of Linconshire shows his address as 22 Hewson Road
