If you go to Streetmap and look up Suffolk Road N15 you will see it comes off St Ann's Road.  Minster Road was parrallel to Suffolk road leading from St Ann's Road.  You will see a little T junction with no name which looks like a dead end.  Minster road was at the end of this dead end bit.

Hope you can understand that.  Minster road is still in my 1950's A-Z

No Trace of Nassau Road or anything like it in Tottenham area

They are not in my A-Z of Victorian England published 1888.  The area looks like fields although St Ann's Road is there.

Actually after getting out my magnifying glass I can see the Min of Minster Road.  It is on the edge of the page.

Try the Internet Archive Wayback Machine

This is a great way to look at deleted web sites.  I just tried it successfully for the Lost London Streets site.  Go to the Wayback Machine, then enter the URL for L.L.S. (http://members.aol.com/WHall95037/london.html) in the blank field.

A lot of inner London street names were changed between 1929 and 1939. I found this site useful in comparing old names to find the later versions --

My Grandfather lived in Islington at East Place, this changed to Northeast Place and worked in the market in Chapel Street which changed to Chapel Market.
Hope this helps !
