researching Liverpool address - any tips?

[lesleyhannah]

I wonder if there's a connection with the French Victor Hugo - now that would be an exciting find for my old house

Which was the directory you got the Hugo information from? I'm not sure where to find these directories. Thank you for your help - I am having some problems - well out of my comfort zone so all your help is appreciated

Which was the directory you got the Hugo information from?

That was from my personal collection of Kelly's directories of Liverpool.

Ronald Victor Hugo's father was born Edward Ronald Hugoe in Plymouth (Stoke Damerel)  in 1881.

Shaun, if I get any information about this family I will pass it on to you. Is this your family? I am grateful for your help. A relative believes the date the house was built is on a plaque outside. He hopes to go and photograph it soon, so I can pass that on to this thread

[ShaunJ]

No I have no connection with the house or any of the families mentioned (as far as I know).

The plaque outside (above numbers 7 and 9) says 1874

I see you've had lots of really great help.

However, I saw this earlier today and it looks like it could be useful to you:
