Sam House

Publican of The Intrepid Fox in Wardour Street where he died. An ardent supporter of the politician, Charles Fox he named his pub after him.
A family tree website carries a transcription of "The Life of Sam House" published a short while after Sam's death in 1785. It's quite long so we've only scanned it but he appears to have been very active socially and politically, and an eccentric.
