My family lived in Ladywood. My grandma lived in Beach Street and one of her relatives ran the local shop Hicks's. Anyone know of the shop or family. My grandma's married name was Fisher.

There is an Alice Hick, who was listed as a grocer at 16 Beach St on the 1939 register.

She was the mother of an Alice (and James & Thomas) who was married previously? To a Harold Whitaker?

In 1939 she is listed at 15 Beach St with 2 daughters, separate from her (1st?) husband.

Not sure if I have the correct people.
 
1939 at 16 Beach street
Thomas Hick b 1882, assistant shopkeeper
Alice Hick b 1882 , General grocery business

at 15 Beach street,, Alice Whitaker b 1904 (Alice Hick married Harold Whitaker 1928)
daughters
Irene Whitaker 1929
June Whitaker 1933
Their father Harold Whitaker died late 1932., age 27

at 6 bk 18 beach street,
Mary E Fisher b 1887 widow,
Arthur 1909
Lilian 1914
Florence 1922
Albert 1923
Stanley 1926
( Mary E Hick married Arthur Stephen Fisher in 1908, he died in 1938 age 52)

I am presuming that Thomas Hick b 1882 was related to Mary E Fisher nee Hick b 1887.

The records often confuse because they show from one entry to the other the name Hick or Hicks
