I am told by an old lady of 94 that her grandfather (my gt grandfather's brother) had a cycle shop near to Handsworth Station, which is at the Hockley end of Soho Road. Would someone be able to have a look and see if she is right please. I suspect the time we are talking about is around 1905. She believes the shop was owned by John Hemms (Hems) but according to his death certificate he was a cycle maker journeyman, so it was not his own shop, obviously. Any assistance would be most appreciated.
