Anyone know how houses were identified in New Bradwell in the 1860s? The birth certificate for my great-grandmother (Mary Jane Marley SALTER) has When & where born: Twelfth April 1863; 135 New Bradwell No street name - just the number. Curious? I have just found the record for them in the 1861 census. At that time they were at Number 118 - again no street, although the census form is wholly hand-written, not pre-printed. It looks to me as if there were either no street names at all, or all the houses were numbered in one sequence - hence no need for street names. Anyone expert in the history of New Bradwell care to comment why there are no street names? And I'd really be grateful to anyone who can translate these houses to their current addresses - if any. As a clue, No 118 appears to contain 3 large families, and the next 2 entries in the census are the Railway Tavern and St James Church.... I've recently found some photos of what I guess are railway built houses, with some 3 storey end-of-terraces that make me wonder if this was the sort of house that 118 might have been.... Grateful for any thoughts. Adrian Bruce adrian_bruce@bigfoot.com
