Hi everyone.
In 1949 Alma Joan Ellis & James Benjamin Ellis still lived in Wilton Street at No 9.
In 1949 George Addison Hammerton & Muriel (Lara?) Hammerton still lived in Wilton St at No 24.
Quote: "Kempster Thomas funeral to move from the residence of his son-in-law Mr G A Hammerton, Hickson st Merewether. father and Father-in law of Mr and Mrs R.J Kempster, Mr and Mrs Thomas H. Kempster and Mr and Mrs G. A. Hammerton"
Hickson St formed the eastern boundary of The Glebe. It was later absorbed into Llewelyn St. It intersected with Wilton St. The current Hickson St in Merewether is not the street referred to in this funeral notice.
A bit more on the Glebe Kempsters. Kempster Road is named after the Mayor of Merewether, Thomas Kempster. I lived in a share house at 1 Kempster Road when I was at University.
Happy happy
