I am researching the various ladies who married a 4th cousin. These 2 ladies died - one in 1929 [Willaston-in-Wirral] and the 2nd in 1961 [Barnston]. I have the addresses from the Probate Register. What I am interested in is if someone from the area coudl rell me something of the history of these abodes and possibly provide photographs? Thank you
Depending on how old the houses were, it might be worth you following up the information in this thread. Also, the book Tracing the History of Houses may be of interest to you.
Whereabouts in Willaston and Barnston? If the properties are still standing, photos won't be a problem.
Eureka! Found them. Quite pleased with my findings on-foot this morning, as I succeeded where both Google and GoogleEarth failed miserably. Now just hoping I didn't have my finger over the lens when taking the photographs.
Absolutely brilliant is just about all I can say - and I am in your debt. Can't wait for the photo's - but must!! Glad you are feeling sprightly.
