I am posting this on behalf of a new member to the forum: StephenB

Hello. New to this forum and have enjoyed looking through members comments and stories.

I had family living in Aston; more specifically on Pugh Road, Grosvenor Road and Clarendon Street.
If anyone has any information, stories, photos etc they’d be willing to share relating to Blackborow, I would be most grateful.

I am trying to gain an insight in to my forbears/ancestors. Sadly, many had left this earth before I entered it.

Thanks for checking my post.
 
Stephen - I have posted your request. However I think members might need a bit more info to be able to help you. Do you have any names or dates to help us in our search?
 
E roll search for Grosvenor Road (as mentioned in original message) - are these who you are looking for?
1939 at 55 Grosvenor Road - Arthur and Alice
1945 at 51 Grosvenor Road - Christopher and Winifred
1950 at 51 Grosvenor Road - Christopher and Winifred with Dennis
1955 and 1960 at same address - Christopher and Winifred with Christopher junior who is in the forces (listed as a service voter)

These are the only years I have access to.
