Found some maps & bits to do with 'Jack O Watton', but can't add them as attachments here (or can't figure how to!) - any idea?
Regarding those houses; if driving towards Coleshill just past that Bikers shop there is a gated access to the left leads to a row of I think 8 houses (due to be comp purchased due to HSE2 I believe). They are not on any map found before 1924. I do know the Water Board (fore-runner to Severn Trent Water) built quite a few homes for thier work staff in Minworth and Curdworth areas in the early 1930's, these are the same designs. These cannot be those recorded as the residence in 1891.
I'm looking at the Description of the area as given by the enumerator, and trying to follow the route he took in gathering the data. I'd assume he worked in an organised route through the area, in which case if there are clear locations it might help to eliminate and therefore track where along his route he would be when recording the data for the Caldicott & Mansell Families. By 1901 he had moved to 'The Bull Ring' in Minworth itself, these were the properties opposite Park Lane (the same side of Water Orton Lane as the Social Club), so I'm told!
What say you?
