Marylin Stevenson tells me that in 1871 her great, great, great uncle was John Barnett and the pub must have been renumbered as during his reign it was addressed at 16-18 St. Albans Road, and at the time it was called the "Tiger's Head." His sister Eliza and her husband George Newns had taken over the pub by 1891 and another of John's sisters, Mary Ann Barnett died at the pub in 189? Eliza died in 1906 and by 1913 the house was no longer in the family.
