Amelia Bennet was my great-grandmother’s sister. In 1883 Amelia married Alexander Bennet who was the licensee of The Royal Tasman Hotel in Patterson Street, Launceston. Alex Bennet died in July 1908. I am trying to find out which building the hotel actually was. I believe it was near the Examiner buildings. Was it on the corner of St John Street where it later became the Hotel National?
