    2. kerrie
    3. Hi All Sorry if some may get this message twice abut as I an not sure which side of the family this photo comes from is why I have asked both lists. I have a photo of a lady looking a bit like a maid but at the bottom of the photo it says E. Wells photo 30 Upper conduct street. I think they may well be another letter in front of the "E" but where this place is would be a good start for me to be able to identify who this lady is. Any and all help or advice is more than greatly apprecited. Regards Kerrie Myers Sydney Australia

    3. Hi Kerrie Try http://www.historicaldirectories.org Where you will find many references to 30 Upper Conduit Street in Leicester As you have posted it here I assume the photo has a Midlands connection? The nearest I can find of a WELLS with a Conduit Street connection is this one in 1881 (or do you mean the E WELLS was the photographer?) Name: Emily A. Wells Age: 11 Estimated Birth Year: abt 1870 Relation: Daughter Father's Name: William Mother's Name: Sarah Gender: Female Where born: St Marys, Leicestershire, England Civil Parish: Leicester St Margaret County/Island: Leicestershire Country: England Street address: 43 Conduit St Education: Employment status: View Image Occupation: Scholar Registration district: Leicester Sub-registration district: East Leicester ED, institution, or vessel: 9 Neighbors: View others on page Household Members: Name Age Emily A. Wells 11 Martin A.E. Wells 15 Sarah Wells 41 William Wells 42 There are different families at No 30 in 1871, 81 & 91 Best wishes Nivard Ovington, in Cornwall (UK) PS when sending to different lists its best to send to each individually rather than cross posting which can cause problems > Hi All > > Sorry if some may get this message twice abut as I an not sure which side > of the family this photo comes from is why I have asked both lists. > > I have a photo of a lady looking a bit like a maid but at the bottom of > the photo it says E.
