Mayo & Co Florists& Nurserymen 151 High Street Aston Circa 19 13

Dear BHF,

Looking for any memorabilia , pictures maps etc for a family that lived in Aston , have managed to locate several address:-

151, High Street Aston,
321, Lichfield Road Aston,
293, Wheeler St Aston,
32, Aston Lane Aston,
101, Beeches Road Aston,

Jill's tree goes back as far as "John Mayo 1680" , there is quite a lot about this family on line already, seems quite a strong name in the area.

Any info would be appreciated.

Many thanks.
Mike & Jill :cool:
 
Are you asking for maps showing the position of those addresses?

Hi Mikejee,
Any old pictures of shop or anything of the time circa 1913- 50 . I assume mostly redeveloped now. If you have maps showing locations that would be great. Found 101 Beeches Road, it looks 1930 ish.

I don't know of another Beeches Road. Perhaps if Gill tells us where she got the address from we could clarify.
Below are maps showing the position of the other three houses in red. None are now standing

I think it is meant to be 101 Beeches Road Great Barr. 1936 Kelly's lists Alfred Mayo at 101 Beeches Road Great Barr.
