66 Bond St , Swansea ?
« on: Monday 23 January 23 14:34 GMT (UK) »
Hello , I have an old photo of a nanny and babies , possibly Victorian or Edwardian era . The rear says 66 Bond St, which as a long shot could be Swansea .
I wondered if anyone knew of that address ?
Any help much appreciated
Regards
Alan Jones

There is a Bond Street in Swansea but the numbers don't go above 58 in the censuses 1881-1921.

Id checked the 1911/1921 Census and electoral rolls and established it did not exceed 58 but was thrown when I found

See 1st entry, column 5 (if it is not automatically delivered).

I can only assume the "66" is his tram driver number? He's on the 1911 Census but not at Bond St.

That's interesting especially as the family member i was researching was a tram car driver of 48 Bond St .
