Edward Coombes
Coombes does not appear in any trade directory until Mathews of 1793, although he was in business by 1778 (see below). The entry is "Edward Coombes, China Mender, Queen Street". Queen Street was in Castle Precincts, off Castle Street, and still exists. He is also listed in later editions, up to 1805. He paid rates on a property in Queen Street for 1785-1802, the entries for 1799-1802 record him as "poor" and no rates were paid for those years. There are no records of any rates paid in relation to later trade directory entries,
