midvixen Posted February 23, 2008 Share Posted February 23, 2008 Hiya. I lived at 348 Loxley Road many, many years ago! Was it the end cottage in a row of four, or one of the big houses that have been there years? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hillsbro Posted February 23, 2008 Share Posted February 23, 2008 In case it is of interest, I have a directory for 1925. At that time the householder was Frederick J. Brookes, described as a "turner". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hillsbro Posted February 23, 2008 Share Posted February 23, 2008 Hi number1owlal - I guess you know this already, but I also looked up your great-grandad in the 1901 census. At that time he lived at 61 Manvers Road and was described as a "Shot and Shell Turner". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
