Locating a street in Mile End
« on: Friday 09 January 15 22:29 GMT (UK) »
 Hello, I am trying to locate a street in Mile End, where my grandparents ran a cafe, they were certainly there in 1960.  The cafe was called Gregory's Cafe, if any one has any knowledge of the area, which may help it would certainly be appreciated......

many thanks in anticipation

I've had a look at the Phone books which are now online. There's nothing there upto 1965.

Are you willing to post your grandfathers name to see what shows up for him

Hi Dawnash, yes my grandfathers name was Gregory Burgess, I know the dates are right as I was born in 1958, and we stayed with them when I was about 2 yrs old when they had the cafe.

Many thanks for your help
