Martha's Houses

I'd love to know a bit more about where Martha lived, I know she loved moving about!!!!She lived in Lydiate at the end of her life(1960's),in the bungalow in Coppull Road just down the road from our house,also I know she lived in Haigh Crescent in the flat down the alley(used to take her her dinner on a Saturday tea time-I think Rene used to do Sundays!!)also Southport Road, Clent Avenue and Riding Lane- Haskayne.But before those houses ????? I know there was a shop in Kirkdale, and did I hear Rene mention Queens Drive.I will try and take a photo of the local ones.......who remembers the rest??

  1. What a great idea to photograph all the houses. I remember taking Grandma's Sunday dinner all plated up and wrapped in a tea towel.
    I think some of the houses Martha lived in are on the census record. If Derek still has an account with ancestry.com he may have access to the earlier addresses. I know the bombed out butchers shop still exists - amazingly still a bomb site. I'll ask Mum about addresses too.

  2. Grandma also lived in Croylands Street in Walton
    (off county rd)until they were bombed out by the German Airforce circa 1940/41 ?? She also lived at Stalmine Road in Liverpool for awhile.A.Rene is best equipped to answer these questions.
