Those interested in the brewing branch of the WELLER family, of High
Wycombe and Amersham, might be interested in a 1905 photo of the
Railway Hotel at Bourne End, prominently displaying the sign "Weller's
Fine Ales."

www.buckscc.gov.uk/swop and enter 'Weller.'  Click on the photo for
details.  (For those who don't know, you can enlarge the image by
pressing the Ctrl key and turning the wheel on top of the mouse.)

Richard ,
Interesting to see also the two Wellers in the group photos . Stephen is
likely to be the councillor and E Weller is likely to be born in High
Wycombe in 1851 ?

David,

You may well be right, but I am sorry to say that I do not know
whether the E. Weller you mention worked for the chairmakers B. North
in Wycombe, the subject of the photo.  I only know that it is not my
grandfather Edward Weller, who had been a partner in the family
brewery and was long dead in 1937.

Maybe someone else can confirm.

Richard

5.0 out of 5 stars An amazing life, 16 Oct 2009
      By  Happy Maggie (England) - See all my reviews

I bought this book because I met the author over 50 years ago when he was
still at school and I was a very young schoolgirl and his father was our
Rector. My grandfather knew Jack Weller when he was at Holme Pierrepoint.
The book is very well written, easy to read, and tells of an amazing and
exciting life. A very good read.

I kept wondering how he managed to fit so much into his life. A very
interesting and inspiring man.
