I have been contacted by a distant relative in Australia.
On researching his family tree, he has discovered that his great grandfather one Elias Hatcher was landlord of the Swan Inn of old Wyke Square Weymouth from approximately 1880 to 1910.
I have taken photos of the square for him but of course the pub has long gone.
So does anyone have a photo taken around that time that I could copy to send to him? Please contact me on the number below.
