    Small Heath 121 Arthur St 1916

    Trying for information re my Great Aunt, Beatrice May Hawkes. Family notes say she had a "Sweets Shop" in Small Heath in 1916. Cannot find her in the 1921 census. Could the 121 Arthur St have been the shop? Any info would be appreciated. Bob Green Louisville KY
