Shaun
I simply cannot thank you enough!!!
You have found the missing link (Frank Hardy) I was looking for !!
Last questions if you don't mind:
- Are you saying you own the 1921 directory and you got the other entries from that website? I could not find the relevant directory when I looked before - would you mind pasting a link to the relevant site page in a reply to me?
- was there no directory for 1915 on the site ?
- I don't suppose a "p" middle initial was given for Frank Hardy?

If anyone has any old London street directories (e.g. Kelly's), I would like to know who lived at 54 Mandrake Road, Upper Tooting in February 1915.
Thanks

I have learned that relevant street directories (e.g.) Kelly's and electoral registers for Upper Tooting are held at Battersea Library.
If anyone is going and is willing to help, I would like to know who lived at 54 Mandrake Road, Upper Tooting in February 1915.
thanks

Does anyone know where I can find a street/house/residents/etc directory that will include Upper Tooting in 1915?
I want to ascertain who was living with my Great grandmother in this year.
Tried that Uni of Leicester site (historicaldirectories.org), but nothing relevant.
TNA? A FHS or records office that covers Upper Tooting ? Any advice?
thanks in advance good people

Occupation Interests / Admiralty - Civil employees
« on: Friday 28 September 07 20:28 BST (UK) »
Does anyone know where I can find Admiralty records for civil employees? I have only found records that relate to men serving on ships (TNA website, Kew). Or any other tips on the following:
The occupation of my great great grandfather Frank P Hardy on the 1901 census (Greenwich) is given as “Civil Accountant Clerk Director of Works Department Admiralty”. There is a family myth that my great grandmother (age 4 on 1901 census) grew up in Plymouth. For a number of reasons to complex to go into here, I would like to find evidence for a move of the family from Greenwich to Plymouth sometime after 1901. My assumption is that, if Frank worked for the Admiralty, it is possible that the move from Greenwich may have been for work reasons, Plymouth obviously having Admiralty connections.
Thanks
