Hi Martin & Carlos,
sorry I have not been in contact, but I have had a serious head injury and spent 3 months in hospital. I am getting a little better now and hoping to visit Chillington in the next few weeks.
I note your comments on past Singleton's in Chillington prior to Joel and Mary, Joel born about 1730.
Any further information would be appreciated, and did this Joel have any brothers or sisters, or a named mother and father at the time.
I don't know how to e-mail the information on their past family members, but I may be able to post the copies of the off-spring. This may take me some time, as things are not easy for me now.
I will need an address if this is required, you will need plenty of patience with me.
Thank you for any help that will aid my re-visit to Chillington.   
Regards Reg.

Hi,
I think my grandfathers house in Wandsworth had been bombed, so they went and stayed with his brother.
That stay ended up will my grandfather living about three years in Dudley doing bomb repair work.
Where in Dudley I don't know.
Thanks for your help,
Reg

Thank you for your response,

 Someone recently advised me, that in the1950’s a Walter Singleton lived at 36 Gotham Road, South Yardley, which used to be part of Solihull.

Is this a shop or a house?

This could be the Walter Gustave Noel Singleton, the shop or their private residence, I don’t know.

Further information obtained, true or not, is that an aeroplane may have come down in a park or open area opposite the shop during 1942?

The properties seemed to be reasonably new in the area of the shops 1920/30's and the shops included a butchers and a greengrocers on what seemed a wide road then.

Would anyone have access to the electoral roll, or any advice on tracing these family members? 

 Thank you for any help,

Reg

London to Solihull and Malvern
Can you please help? Walter Gustave Noel Singleton, born 1893 Wandsworth, London. move to Solihull and had a hardware-ironmongers type of shop in Solihull. He was the brother of my grandfathers William Charles born 1889. Is there anything like a Kelly's or Pigot's trade directory, which covers Solihull in the late 1930's, or between 1940-42? This was the period when my grandfather visited the property to avoid the bombing in London. Hopefully this would list Singleton as the proprietor of the shop, with an address so that I may be able to obtain old photographs.

I have been informed recently that Walter Gustave Noel Singleton's wife's name is:
Ethel Ellen Eastaff born1890 in Luton, they married in 1915 and had a daughter Mabel E Singleton born1920 Edmonton.
Ethel Ellen Singleton died 1988 Registration Malvern, Worcestershire Vol. 29 Page 647
Would anyone have any information on Walter Gustave Noel Singleton his wife Ethel Ellen Singleton or the daughter Mabel E Singleton (name changed if married)
Thank you,
Reg

PS. a  Walter Singleton live at 36 Gotham Road, South Yardley, Nr Solihull in the 1940's.
