LINKS WITH THE RUBICK FAMILY
 


Ellen and her husband Fred Jerome also ran a boarding house called Briar Bank at 20 York road , Aldershot.

Ellen cooked the meals for the staff at Wallis's and a story has been passed down that Willie Rubick couldn't stand her cooking so he left. This has been shown to be incorrect, as a 1914 extract from her guest register testifies.

 

 


Willie really left to start up on his own. He bought Watkins shop in Gordon Road.
 
When Mr Wallis retired Mr Jerome came in as manager and later had his own shop at 50 Union Street.
