Address in Abingdon
« on: Monday 05 May 08 16:59 BST (UK) »
Hi

I wonder if anyone could help me. On the 1891 census my 2x great grandmother is living at 3 St John's Terrace, Spring Road, Abingdon. I know where Spring Road is and have walked up and down it several times but can't find a St John's Terrace. Does anyone know where it was?

Thanks

Harli

Hi Harli,
            Welcome to RC :)

I also had a family who lived at St Johns Terrace and after much searching came to the conclusion

that it was later called Spring Terrace. I also asked my parents and they believe this to be right as

they lived in Winterbourne Road for many years and so did my dads parents.

       Hope this helps
