Occupants of house in Gomshall
« on: Friday 05 January 18 23:56 GMT (UK) »
Think in 1901 a schoolteacher and her sister were living there. So need to know who were the occupants in 1911 then If possible from electoral rolls or any other records any other occupants up to 1966. Know the occupants from 1966 till 2018. Thankyou.

I can't give you names but I can tell you in 1939 there was a widow born 1893 living on her own and next door at number 9 there was a man, a joiner, with the same surname born 1891 with his wife born 1893.

In 1911 there was a man aged 55 who worked on the railways and his wife who was apparently 90!  It does show they had been married for 32 years and had no children.  I'm not sure I would have liked my 23 year old son to marry a 58 year old woman.

The names of the people in 1911 and 1939 are not the same.
