Hi Jen.

Thank you so much Yet again...Do you happen to know if Wassail street is near to orange street?   Shame her not being Hester I found a George with mother Hester and Charles father. oh well back to the drawing board.
I suppose at some stage I will have to visit Bristol...

Thanks again......

Hi Pat. Where Orange St was now runs alongside Swansea Market & the Quardrant Shopping Centre entrance. It no longer has a Street name it is used for workers. Wassail St would be near to Rutland Place which is not too far from St Mary's Church in the Centre of Swansea. So the 2 streets are not too far from each other certainly within short walking distance. That area of Swansea has changed dramatically over the years.
