Many thanks for that, it is appreciated.
My Great Grandfather, John Pollitt and his wife Elizabeth were Publicans at the Public House in 1911.
My Grandfather, he was 13 at the time was declared on the 1911 Census as the Housekeeper.
Subsequently the family moved to Royston near Barnsley to find work as Coal Hewers.
I suspect I will find more information if I research 'The Swan' as opposed to 'The Old Swan'
Many thanks again
