sas3105 Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 I am researching my family history and know of the Roberts store in Sheffield. Can anyone tell me the names of those who owned the store, also any history about it. Many thanks indeed:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smary Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 (edited) I have been searching and found a John Arnold Roberts born 1877 died 1965. His brother Charles 1871 was the other partner. The mother was called Mary Ellen and they lived 35 Kenwood Park Road, Sheffield. There appears to be several children. Amelia, Maud, Florence, Edith, Elsie and Percival - maybe others - I took this from the 1901 census. Charles died 11 July 1939 and it states joint managing director Edited October 15, 2013 by smary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter Tottle Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 I am researching my family history and know of the Roberts store in Sheffield. Can anyone tell me the names of those who owned the store, also any history about it. Many thanks indeed:) Hi, I used to live on Kent Roed, Heeley. Sheffield and my friend Nevel Roberts, he lived at +-79 Kent Road, if that is any good to you. I'm ancient and he could be dead by now, and that row of 2 up and 2 down has been knocked down, and replaced by a grass patch. Time marches on I'm afraid.

Kent Road with the "old gassie" at the bottom where the little bridge went over the river? Regards, Duffems Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
