Hello!
Any ideas please as to the location of
WERN Road. Shop name TALBOT (Butcher)? South Wales / Monmouthshire
Wern Road at end of brick/stone terraced row of houses on steep incline. The name TALBOT above the door. Sign in window probably reads (Cant)ERBURY (La)MB so more than likely a Butchers shop!
Shop on opposite corner has in window "Umbrellas and ? made. Repaired ? Speciality"
I'm convinced this is South Wales or Monmouthshire
With thanks~001uk

Hi in 1901 Wern Road brings up Llanelly Monmouthshire or Llanquick Glamorganshire.

Thank you Kay99 for confirming my thoughts re area location - especially with the image. I couldn't track down the actual Wern Road involved. Grateful to others who chipped in

The best fit on 1901 to this place of birth is a Frederick Talbot in Worcester born "Marchfield" He is a stocktaker and comptroller
