Help reading a 1866 Surrey registration
« on: Sunday 31 July 16 08:24 BST (UK) »
Hello. I have the attached copy of a registration from the GRO. It is the birth of Ellen Anne PULHAM (later LIDDICOAT, then FULLGRABE) (23 Sep 1866 - 27 Jul 1951). She died in Adelaide South Australia.

Am having trouble reading the place of birth and mother's name. The place of birth (likely the parent's home) is repeated in the informant's column.  ?? Cottages, ?? Road, ?? Hill.

It is in the subdistrict of Brixton, district of Lambeth, county Surrey.

Maybe someone can remember the Brixton area in 1866!  ;D

Thanks for any help

Craig
Heyer, Wray, Fullgrabe, Kayser, Beecken (all Upper Sturt or country South Australia)

Thomas Pulham and Maria Skeates appear on the same page - Marriages - June quarter 1866.  The brith certificate says Skeats.

I agree with the address.

I think that some of us agreed that the address was:

 7 Painton Cottages, Lyhham Road, Brixton Hill
