Title: 1973 address look-up
Post by: whales on Monday 06 May 13 17:44 BST (UK)

Would someone be kind enough to check the electoral registers for 1973 or thereabouts.   I have found a letter sent to an elderly relative who has since died.   It was signed Julia and the address was 6 Hamilton Road, Wimbledon, London sw19.   If I can find the surname of the people living there it will help with my research in Ireland where the family were born.

Thank you.

Marie.

Hello,

Thank you for the reply but it was me who put that request on, I don't think I'll ever find out.

Regards.

It appears to be Albert C Phair living there in 1965.

Wimbledon is covered by Merton Local Studies (http://www.merton.gov.uk/leisure/history-heritage/localstudies.htm) who should have street directories and electoral rolls. Most Local Studies Libraries will do quick lookups for free -- e-mail address at that link.
