    Mike do you see a Gladys Ada Hadley in hospital st at all although she died in 1941. I think that John and Gladys (she was his first wife )live in 13 corville rd quinton, how John ended up in hospital st I don't know. But he married may in 1950 then died in 1951

    Mike thanks for this. John Hadley and May Hadley were my dads Steparents (long story and sad). So I think this is the address 1 back 260 hospital street. Would this be as described near Bloxams?

    He was definitely under 21 when he lived there but I do think he lived there until he got married at 24. The others who lived there wer Mary(may) Hadley, Yvonne Hadley and maybe William Appleby. His name was Tony not Anthony

    Hi lyn He doesn't remember the number. It said if he went up the entry from Bloxams he was the second door on the left, the first door being the back door to the front house (confusing!!)

    Wow this is more than I ever thought I would have found out, I will ask him as I'm sure this will jog his memory. He did say that there was a shop at the end of the entry where he lived. I don't suppose you remember which house he lived at. Thanks so much for this info. I just spoke to my dad...

    Moss you must have lived on Hospital street the same time my dad did, his name was Tony Hadley, any memory of him. He was born in 1936 he must have live there until around 1960 when he got married and eventually left Birmingham in 1964.

    Hospital Street

    Thanks for this, this sounds right and I am thinking it was either the Henrietta or Frankfort st. Do you know what year they they were demolished. I am thinking my dad would be there from about 1945 to maybe 1960
