    3. Hi folks and greetings from the monsoon region of Kings Norton The nearest address to Bristol St is Dartmouth Street, about 2km distance. The name of Hamnett does not appear in Pickards Pink Pages, so cannot offer any advice on the possible year regards Alf FANTHAM Debbie wrote: > Hello listers, > I'm trying to connect some dots on some old photo's and was hoping someone can be of help. > > Through the census years, my ancestors (HUMPHRIES) lived on the following streets: > 1851 - Dartmouth St. - Aston- > 1861 - The Coldfield - Sutton Coldfield- > 1871 - Easy Row, Erdington Village - Erdington > 1881 - Marsh Ln, Woodbine Villas - Aston Manor > > The 2 photo's were taken at Hamnett studio? that is listed as Bristol St., Birmingham.

    3. Hello Debbie Don't know if you have tried searching any historical directories for Hamnett Studios listed in the trade section under photographers. If you can find out when they were in business this might help you date the photgraphs. There are some historical histories online at http://www.historicaldirectories.org/hd/index.asp Otherwise you might find some at the Warwick Record Office, Birmingham Archives or a local library. If you don't live local you could send them an email and they might do a look-up for you. I recently contacted the Cheshire Record Office and they found my Rowley family of Silk Manufacturers listed in Kelly's Directory. Hope this helps Regards Carole Debbie wrote: > Hello listers, > I'm trying to connect some dots on some old photo's and was hoping someone can be of help. > > Through the census years, my ancestors (HUMPHRIES) lived on the following streets: > 1851 - Dartmouth St. - Aston- > 1861 - The Coldfield - Sutton Coldfield- > 1871 - Easy Row, Erdington Village - Erdington > 1881 - Marsh Ln, Woodbine Villas - Aston Manor > > The 2 photo's were taken at Hamnett studio? that is listed as Bristol St., Birmingham.
