Hello James

My granddad George Albert Watson was born in 1903. He died in 1965 when I was
2 years old. He is buried in the Hastings Borough Council Cemetery in a common grave with
just a number! I obtained this information from the Register Office in Hastings.
I've been meaning to visit but haven't got round to doing it yet.
His wife Margaret Grace is buried in the same cemetery as is their daughter, my aunty Kay.

What a small world. I think Jane Watson nee Huckstep died in 1845?

Regards

Alan

Hello James

I've recently taken up researching my dads side of the family-the Watsons,
and I note you are looking into George Hemmings Watson. He is my great grandad, and my great
great grandad!
They shared  the same name and both were hairdressers.
Only yesterday ( 16-10-15) I received one of the Georges' birth certificates with his
mums maiden name, Huckstep-this spelling is illegible on the certificate so when I saw your
post I was really pleased I had identified it.
Rope Walk was their residence in 1839.
I have some more certificates and other info if you're interested.

Only on Google maps! (if that's what you mean 'walked'
that street?

If this was their home I can only assume they moved to Victoria Dwellings between the 1901 census and 1903 as stated on my grandfathers certificate.

If you have any other suggestions regarding Victoria Dwellings I would be grateful-thank you.

Sussex / Property location for where 26, Victoria Dwellings might have been?

Hello

I'm looking for where 26, Victoria Dwellings might have been? My great grand parents were residing
at this address when my granddad was born in 1903.
I note in the doctors ledger from 1896-1899 there was a Watson, my family name, registered
with this doctor.
Any suggestions would be welcome-thank you.

Alan
