Title: Hull electoral roll look up request.
Post by: tigtag on Sunday 18 September 11 21:26 BST (UK)
I am looking for my brick wall Sarah Rosa Naomi Osburn / Sarah Rosa Naomi Nicholson / Naomi Nicholson / *any variation of the fornames* Lamb.

I know this is a massive long shot but would be very grateful if anyone could take a look at the registers / electoral rolls / street directories whilst / if they are already visiting the archives.

Sarah was born in 1880
She married Charles Nicholson in 1905
She married Burton Lamb (as Naomi Nicholson) in 1915 even though Charles did not die until 1918.

I'm looking after 1915 which is when I lose sight of her.

On the 1911 Census, although probably irrelevant as she abandoned this family shortly after,  her address was:
12 Brunswick Grove, Hessle

In 1914, when my Grandmother was born she was living with her "boyfriend", my Grandmothers father Henry Thomas at:
57 Somerscales Street, Hull

Her address at the time of the Burton Lamb (1915) marriage was:
13a Humber Street, Hull

in 1920 her mother lived at:
12 Redcar Street, (Drypool?), where she died [her mother]

I would appreciated ANY information at all.

Many many thanks in advance
Jo

Hi Redcar Street is in East Hull it can be reached by going through Mulgrave Street, Redcar Street or St Mark Street off New Cleveland Street.  The area received bomb damage during the war but many houses remain.

Hi Jo,

Sorry I am unable to help with visiting the archives (something I would dearly love to be able to do).

Have looked at Burton Lamb (born c1890 in Rotherham) and note he died in Barnsley, W Yorks, the National Probate Calendar, states Lilian Bennett, single woman is the executor of his will.  So wondering if this means that Sarah Rosa Naomi etc was no longer on the scene, either due to having died or maybe moved on again ;_)
