Family History Beginners Board / Re: Searching for Grandad
« on: Friday 31 July 20 08:01 BST (UK) »In the 1957, 1958 and 1959 Kenneth and Joan are living in Thursley Road Mottingham. This could be her parents address. The electoral rolls show as Bexley on Ancestry but they’re not in Bexley. The local council until 1965 was Chislehurst and Sidcup UDC. In 1965 Chislehurst and some parts of Mottingham went into the London Borough of Bromley and Sidcup etc went into the London Borough of Bromley. For some unknown reason the electoral rolls for Chislehurst and Sidcup UDC appear. to have gone to the London Borough of Bexley.
I remember the change well suddenly I went from being in a Kent Council School to it being in the London Borough of Bromley whilst I now lived in the London Borough of Bexley. I think the dividing line for the two boroughs was the A20, I crossed it every school day.
Hi Gibel
This was my nan’s address. They were together for 3 years and then my bio grandad left and that is the last that we know of him. My dad was only 2 when he walked away. Hence why we don’t have much info on him after this
