Looking for my Great Aunt
« on: Thursday 05 April 12 18:19 BST (UK) »
My great aunt Elsie b Mar q 1896 in Weston-super-mare, moved down to Bournemouth to live sometime after her brother my grandfather came to Bournemouth.  I dont know if whilst living in Bournemouth she met 'the love of her life' Julia Fallow. ;)  For sometime they both lived in Castlemain Avenue in Southbourne, Bournemouth but then moved to New Milton.  When they both died, they were buried together.  I tried to find out where in New Milton they lived, but was told by the library that the street directories were at Lymington.  I would dearly love to find out more about my great aunt and Julia Fallow.  I have lots of pictures of the two together with my family.  Can anyone help me locate their address in New Milton?  regards Trish

The only Julia Fallow I can find around that sort of date is one born Leeds 1904 - might that be a possibility?

Hi

If you search the 1911 for
Elsie Fear b1896 Sparkford you may get a start.

Sparkford is Weston Bampfylde (Somerset)
but not Weston Super Mare (Somerset)

I wonder if you could do one last thing? Were either of the two brothers Jack or Gilbert married?
