1 "Darling's Regent Hotel was started c 1867 at 20, Waterloo Place as Temperance Hotel run by Mr James Darling. It continued to be run and expanded by the family it occupied 17-22, Waterloo Place. After his death, his daughter Jane ran with other members of the family until she died inthe '30s when it was bought by North British Hotels who continued running it until 1976. Sometime afterwards it became Council Offices and finally it has reverted to a hotel, a Travelodge from where I am writing this email.

Mr. Darling also acquired the premises in South St. Andrews St. which became the St. Andrews Hotel, again Temperance. This was run by his niece, Isabella, until her death in 1942 but continued in the family for another two generations. I am currently researching both these hotels plus a couple of others that may have been connected with the Darlings and other members of my tree."

He married Mary Anne Harrison in 1843, He was a butcher, but his business was liquidated (reported in the Stamford Mercury 31 July 1846 - solicitors notice 28 July 1846). He became a railway porter and his death was reported in the same newspaper. He is buried in Pinchbeck. His parents were Joseph Blackith and Ann Roberts, Joseph was the brother of my 3 times great grandfather, Staveley Blackith. I have written extensively in some of the Blackiths on my tree in life stories. Hope this helps."
