Welcome ot the Forum.
I think you might need to give a bit more information for our members to try and help.
Where was the shop - road and, if possible, number. what dates are we talking about? Thanks

From the 1939 register.

 

[brummy-lad]

This is number 86 in the 1950s. but doubtful that this was a shop.

no bottetourt road was where he lived , thankyou

 

[pjmburns]

So 1939 register is correct.
He is living at 86 as shown on the map. If ge had a shop it was elsewhere

he was in the 70s , he later moved to above the shoe shop (i went there once) he lived there with Maralyn and her son Ross , they both moved to the USA after his death , just trying to find some history on my mothers side of the family , he is buried in kings norton church cemetery , the 1939 register is correct
