Gemini2 Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 Do you know anything about an Amos Stewart (Stuart) Hi I asked my mum, And all she knows is that his mother had a fruit shop on the corner of Harriet St. & Birch Rd. (it fronted onto Birch rd.) near a Steel works called Jonas & Colvers. unfortunately the streets are no longer there. I know the house my mums family lived in was destroyed by an incendery bomb. She said she was a bit to young at the time to know a lot. Sorry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemini2 Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 My dad lived on Princess st. too in the 20s/30s and told the same stories- apparently if someone 'messed' with the cellar grate gang, your window would be shattered by same. My mum lived on Harriet street and tells the same story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
