Please can anyone tell me where this road was or direct me to a map which shows it? A family I am researching lived there in 1939. Was it bombed out during WW2?

Durham / Typing tuition in Sunderland about 1935-1940
« on: Monday 18 February 19 16:54 GMT (UK) »
I am trying to piece together a sketchy outline for the life of my aunt following vague snippets from my mother's memory. My aunt (born 1920) attended St Anthony's Convent School in Sunderland and subsequently learned to type before employment at BHS. My mother seems to remember the name "Underwoods" in relation to Commercial training. Can anyone enlighten me further?

Lancashire / Civil Marriage Certificates for Roman Catholic Weddings 1871 [Completed]
« on: Wednesday 05 August 15 15:44 BST (UK) »
According to the marriage register for St Alban's RC Church Liverpool, Michael O'Hare married Elizabeth McVey on 4th Nov 1871. I cannot find this record in the BMD Lancashire. Were these marriages recorded separately by the Civil Authorities or not? Can anyone help me please? I was hoping to gain extra information from a Civil registration certificate.
