good afternoon everyone,
can anyone help with finding where number 5 Chandor street was,I have looked on Boothes maps but it is not listed I know it existed as Winifred Martha Foreman sister of Michael was buried from the address in st martins in the field burial ground on 30/1/1855.there is a Chandos street but this is not it, unless the Chandor street address is a misprint.Winifreds parents lived in b
Bedford street the strand when they died in 1830 and 1835.
Looking forward to your replies, thank you

At FindMyPast census address search there is only a single hit for "Chandor Street" (in Nottiinghamshire) and examination of the original indicates that it is a mistranscription of "Chandos Street".
There are hits for "Chandos Street" in London at BNA, but the few that I have looked at are OCR errors (for "Chandos Street")

It's Chandos Street per the burial registers

It was just around the corner from Bedford Street. This from the 1856 PO Directory:
(NB there were two Chandos Streets - this is the one in Covent Garden)
