usually find that a licensed victualler sold alcohol, as they had to have a court licence, but a victualler sold food. So as it's an inn she could have been in charge of the catering. A posh name for cook , lol. Victuals is actually an old name for food |

If you could get to the library local to the area (or maybe if you phone, even?) there might be town directories held there. |

Wouldnt have thought so - but the local records office may have the application? Some areas have pubs listed on line with their landlords - so you could have a google using the pub name/area |

Anyone know if there is a record of licensed victuallers from the 1940's on line anywhere? |
