I have the Kelly's Directory for 1965 (compiled in 1964) which gives the names of most householders (but not those of "court" houses). I can look up the address if you post it here or send it me by PM.

Copies of old Kellys' and other large directories used to be kept in the Reference Library on Surrey Street.

Thanks Tinga I have kindly been given surname from a SF user. The library on Surrey st have got copies of electoral rolls so I will make a visit there and follow through the rolls hopefully till my friend is old enough to vote and been entered on the rolls and work from there. Thank you for replying .
