Hi, Looking for any information on a tobacconist shop at 26 Gt Lister Street, Duddeston. Originally run by Ernest Green and his wife Edith Green. My great uncle later married Edith in 1915 after her husband died in 1913. They continued to live there till 1925 before emigrating to New Zealand.
 
Ernest is listed as a Theatre Fireman on the 1911 census, living 26 Great Lister St.

There are a few thread on Great Lister St, some with photos (search great lister top right, titles only).
