Property location for where 26, Victoria Dwellings might have been?
« on: Sunday 13 September 15 18:40 BST (UK) »
Hello

I'm looking for where 26, Victoria Dwellings might have been? My great grand parents were residing
at this address when my granddad was born in 1903.
I note in the doctors ledger from 1896-1899 there was a Watson, my family name, registered
with this doctor.
Any suggestions would be welcome-thank you.

Alan

Hi,

Welcome to Rootschat.  :)

Do you have any more details.....country, city/town/village?  There could be more than one "Victoria Dwellings".

I'll ask a moderator to move this to the Sussex board where you might find some local knowledge.

The 1901 has the family at 17 North Street St Leonards.  A street of that name is still there which by the look of it on Google Earth has many houses of that era.  Have you "walked" that street?
I am Zoe Northeast, granddaughter of Maximilian Double.
 
It is with great difficulty I share with you that in the early hours of 07 August 2021, Maximilian passed away unexpectedly but peacefully.

With deep sadness,
Zoe

Only on Google maps! (if that's what you mean 'walked'
that street?

If this was their home I can only assume they moved to Victoria Dwellings between the 1901 census and 1903 as stated on my grandfathers certificate.

If you have any other suggestions regarding Victoria Dwellings I would be grateful-thank you.
