John Gifford is listed as ... wholesale and retail dealer in wines,

the corner of Broad Street and Bell Lane, the Full Moon is pictured here in the 1890’s.
Through St.John’s arch can be seen the City Wine & Spirit Vaults in Quay Street.

The following information was provided by Martin Mitchell via the message forum:
My
gt.-gt.-gt.-grandfather John Powell came from Wales in about 1775 and took on the
Full Moon, with his wife Jane née Evans. Their eight children were born there. John
Powell died 24 Aug 1791, and was buried at St John the Baptist in the same grave
as his infant daughter Ann who died a week earlier. His widow carried on the business,
but died 2 Sep 1807, presumably relinquishing the business not long before her death.
Parish Register entries apart, my info comes from a grandson of theirs (my gt.-gt.-uncle),
a County Court Judge and sometime MP for Gloucester, John Joseph Powell (1816-1891).
