Title: Pomona Street, Regist District Liverpool; Sub district Mount Pleasant, Lancaster
Post by: gemmee on Tuesday 19 February 08 14:01 GMT (UK)

I am trying to figure out who/what was at the 1 Pomona Street Address in Mount Pleasant in October 1886.   

When my great grandmother was registering a death of one of her children, she gave this address as the place of death of the child and also as the *residence of informant.*   Prior to, and following the death , her address was at a different location, so I'm assuming that 1 Pomona Street may have been a hospital or some sort of health clinic where they may have been staying.  I have located some Pomona Street addresses, but it seems like Pomona Street was a business district

Can anyone help me out with this.

Thank you.... gail
