"My grandmother Elizabeth Cliff, was born there in 1886 and grew up there until she was a young woman.  Her father and family ran the pub and lived upstairs.  She eventually married Thomas Bentley, emigrated to the United States, had 5 sons (all of whom died before she did) and died in Trenton, New Jersey in 1984 at the age of 98.  Both her and her husband worked in the potteries in Trenton, as they had done in Burslem."
