Title: Kelly's Directory London 1918 - 30 Lookup Request
Post by: shack224 on Friday 08 March 13 16:58 GMT (UK)
Can anyone help locate my grandfather Samuel William Moss who owned a shop (possibly a grocers) in London shortly after 1918. He may only have had it for a few years but any info would be appreciated.

Regards

Hi shack224

On Ancestry in Hughes Business Directory for 1921:-

Moss, Samuel (fruit) Spitalfields Mkt, E1

less likely Post Office 1934

308 Albert Rd, Moss, William; Grocer

You can also find Directories on this site:

http://www.historicaldirectories.org/hd/index.asp

I found no references to Samuel Moss on it, but you might find it useful.

Thanks for responding so quickly to my query.

I think you are right that the 1921 entry is most likely to be my grandfather and now after many years not knowing, this gives me a starting point to find out more about him.

Thanks again your reply is really appreciated.
