ah, that's brilliant, thanks so much, I was starting to think I was going mad as even map sellers were denying any knowledge of it!

London and Middlesex / what happened to Holly Grove SW16?

My husband has family members in the 1891 census living in Holly Grove in Balham/ Streatham. I understand that it was just off Oldridge Road but I can't seem to find it on any map and can find no mention of it being demolished. Can anyone enlighten me as to what happened to this road? Thanks

That's great thanks, I found that family earlier on the old family search (not the flashy new one!) website and wondered if that might be the one.

This is my first real dealing with Irish ancestry- where do I order certificates from? and was there any form of census that I could track down the family in or is ordering a cert and seeing if the occupations tie up the only way?

Thanks again

Nico

Were either of her siblings born after 1864- if so there might be a chance of finding their birth certificates.

Ah very cunning, I hadn't even thought of that!
 Yes George appears in 1901 born abt 1868 in Ireland 1891 census has John Stone born Dublin abt 1865 and Kate Stone born abt 1869

Hi Shane

Unfortunately I know nothing about her. her siblings seem to appear to be visiting/ staying with her in the later censuses as JOhn & Kate Stone are  with her in 1891 and George in 1901. Other than that I know nothing!

Trying to track down my husband's great grandmother Mary Jane Stone born abt 1862.

She married Richard Wright on 21st May 1888. Address is listed as Zennor Road, Streatham and father as George Stone, Miller. Witnesses Charles & Ellen Wright.
She appears in 1891 & 1901 censuses still in Zennor Road and listed as born Ireland (Dublin in one) but I can find no trace of her before her marriage (there is a Mary J Stone down in Devon born in ireland but she appears there after my Mary's marriage).

Any help tracking her down would be very much appreciated as I am very very stuck- even if it is just suggestions of how I might find out if she came over from ireland after 1881 and before 1888. I have also posted on Surrey & ireland board to keep all bases covered!
