Hello Sue

I didn't get your message before the weekend, as I was away for a week.  I have had no reply from Southwark yet, so I don't have a map of the cemetery, but I hope you had some success anyway?

Thanks Gaie

I'm not really surprised that the old houses have gone, but I would like to see what the area looks like now, so keep working on that digital camera!

I'll have a look at the sites you mentioned.

Thanks

meles,

You are a saint!

Thanks for the photos, they will go into the family history album.

Surely there's a mistake in your message - £275,000...??  I couldn't afford to live in England now (we came to Australia 25 years ago).

Thanks again

Meles,

Thanks very much - there's no great hurry, but I am looking forward to seeing the house if it's still there.

Hi John & Steven

Thanks for the info, I guess I need to find a department at the Town Hall that might have some old photos.

William Umney was my great-great-great-grandfather (no doubt he got his Sunday suit from Tom Bishop at number 11, and Tom got his boots from William Umney at Number 25...!)

I really wanted the actual number 4, so I 'll keep trying.

London & Middlesex Completed Lookup Requests / Holmdene Avenue, Herne Hill

Does anyone know if the building at 4 Holmdene Avenue, Herne Hill is the one that existed in 1899?
My ancestor John Barker Smith and his wife Maria and daughter Lilian lived there.

If so, I would like to obtain a photo if possible.

(I also posted this on the Surrey board, but don't know which one is right...!)
