Tracing my mum’s addresses from 1914 to 1939
« on: Friday 20 December 24 20:57 GMT (UK) »
I have been trying to locate maps showing where my mum lived as a child growing up in Liverpool. Mum was been in 1914, the address I have is 4 Bartholomew Place, Roscoe St, Liverpool.
I have been to Liverpool’s Central Library and although they have maps around 1910 showing Roscoe St, I can’t find Bartholomew Place.
Any suggestions will be very much appreciated.

Bartholomew Place was near the south end of Roscoe Street and St. Mark's Church.  It is shown near the top edge of a large scale plan surveyed 1847:

The next large scale plan surveyed 1890 shows it had been officially renamed as Court 10:

These names are not shown on the 1908 edition which is at a smaller scale:

The most recent newspaper reference to Bartholomew Place that I can see is in 1904 (Mrs Realdon, at number 2, seeking work washing and cleaning).

However there are families at numbers 4 and 6 in the 1921 census. The family at number 4 is called Matson.
Boyd, Dove, Blakey, Burdon
