Raglan Street was renumbered between 1888 and 1891, the pub was at 33 or 34 and became 61.
Robert Charles Jago was my great grandfather who owned/ran the pub in the 1890's and into the 1900's. I thought you might like to know that I have found some other sources that indicate it was named Hearts of Oak in the 1890s:- Both the 1891 & 1901 census has Robert living at 61 Raglan St. In 1891 after the address it just indicates "Public House". In 1901 it indicates "Hearts of Oak tavern". The 1911 census isn't available yet so I'm not sure when he gave it up.
- Robert Charles Jago lost a couple of children who were buried at the Lowestoft Cemetery. Their address at time of death was listed as the Hearts of Oak tavern on Raglan Street see here (look for Thomas Blake & Violet Janet).…
