If I know the name of a Brewery (Rupert) that I'd like to find out more information about. Where might I find that information. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Hi and welcome to the forum.
If you can give us more details I would hope that we could help a little.
There expect that there should be a register of brewers at the Liverpool Record Office that could be consulted also there may be entries for it in the trade directories, many of our members have copies of certain years and some are available to look up online. Check our "For Posterity" Board http://liverpool-genealogy.org.uk/phpBB ... php?t=6906 and also Historical Directories
I did google but only found a Rupert Brewery in New York

I found this in the old newspapers site.
Liverpool Mercury Mar 6 1897
Bankruptcy Acts 1883 & 1890
Thomas Steele, Trading as The Rupert Brewery Company, Jasmine Street Liverpool, Brewer.
Jan
Clarke, McLeod, Pendleton (Liverpool and I.O.M.) Coltham, Cowley, Nickson, Huyton, Grisdale, Quirk, Knowles, Street, Howard. Knubley.
Similar notices were in the London Gazette on 5th and 16th March, 2 April 1897; on 30 Sept 1898 a notice released the trustees [in bankruptcy] from their duties, which presumably shut Mr Steel down for good, and the brewery, too.
The premises in Jasmine Street were not licensed as a pub in 1909 according to licensing records which I have for that year, but might have been earlier. Can anyone look in a directory, as many of the small brewers were pub-based.

Rupert Brewery
Thanks for your help. My great grandfather John Johnson is shown in the Gore Directory in 1880, 1883 and 1884 as a brewer and the location is 26 Jasmine. I found later that that same location is later called Rupert Brewery. Not sure if it was Rupert's in 1880.
The family story is that there was a brewery in our family and so far this is as close as I can find. But it's John Henry Middlebrough that is suppose to have it..the only way that makes sense is if he got it from his father-in-law; John Johnson.. Otherwise he came across one some other way.

The Gazetteer of Liverpool Breweries by John Barge gives this for Jasmine St:
Brewers:
No 11: John Ullyett 1887
20 ditto 1884-86
26 John Young & Co 1867
26 Henry & Rich'd Lumb 1867-69
26 Richard Lumb 1870-92
26 Rupert Bry Co 1894-1902
The author notes that the first two are probably the same place. [Street numbering may have changed.]
Ullyett had other premises around the city. Young had only this one. The Lumbs had a place in Duke St earlier, but perhaps only 'agency/offices' according to the author.
