Yorkshire (East Riding & York) / Re: Public (rail) footbridge - Holderness Road, Hull
« on: Wednesday 26 December 07 17:59 GMT (UK)  »
Thanks firstly to Rena, hepburn and Bee,

From the websites sent I have located  a clear map of the area on Holderness Road where the crossing was (ish) Courtney Street / Waller Street area. I had a further browse to see if there was a photo of any description but nothing so far. But I am hopeful - again thanks for your input it is appreciated.  :)
Regards.

The Common Room / Nimrod William DART born abt 1806 in USA
« on: Wednesday 26 December 07 13:51 GMT (UK)  »

Hi I am searching any info on the above man. The only connection he has with my family tree is the same surname name. A very helpful American lady helped me fill some missing links in my own family tree and asked me to keep an eye / ear out for any mention of her gg-grandfather, Nimrod William DART was born about 1806 in Maryland. He is found on the 1850 census where his birth place was stated. He is not on the 1860 or 1870 census and it maybe he died in or around 1871 in Arkansas. There is no information as to who his parents were but thought they could have emigrated from Europe(?).
Many thanks for reading this post.

 :)Another big thank you for the website and I found something there which indicates that I am on the right track...just perhaps I had not explained  it correctly, for example and I quote...
The site of Southcoates station looking north in October 2005. In the shot looking north, the railway trackbed ran approximately through the traffic lights (the site of the level crossing on Holderness Road)  
Its the 'site of the level crossing on Holderness Road' that I am looking for a photo of.
Again, many thanks for all your time  :)

 :D Many thanks for the response. More pictures that I can shake a stick at  :) I have found a photo there of a church, St Marys in Hull which is now demolished. One of my ancestors was married there and I only ever had a church name - now have a photo to go with it. Again, thanks for your time.
Regards.

Hello,
Does anyone know if there was a public overhead (rail) footbridge on Holderness Road, Hull in the 1960's?. If there was would anyone have any idea where I could find a photograph?
Many thanks in advance.
