Title: 12 Bath Street,Bath
Post by: genuisscuffy on Tuesday 13 May 08 19:55 BST (UK)
Hi, if anyone is living in Bath could you please tell me if there is still a Bath Street? Probably a long shot as most towns have been redeveloped - many thanks :)

George in Portsmouth 1920's  -  not so far - but I haven't followed all the marriages through much past 1915 - so still a possibility  :D

Mine all originated in Titchfield, Hants. You got any from there ?

genuisscuffy - would you be interested in a modern photograph of Bath Street?  Obviously it won't look like it did when your ancestors lived there!

I will be going into Bath in the next few weeks so would be happy to take a snap  for you.  :)
