I think he started out in Heath Street just round the corner in Winson Green, when he returned with Marthe, not sure when because he did work in Lyon pre-1923. He lived in Neasden Grove, Kingstanding. I know that because we moved in there around 1955.
that looks like my lot, Lillian was Marthe's sister, she may have been staying at the time. So Mum was there in 1945, waiting for dad to come home from the war I expect. I was born in 1949 so it looks like I may have lived there in my baby days before we moved to Alum Rock...
My Mum was born in 27 Talbot Street in 1922 (dont know where that is), so Joseph returned before then I should imagine and then moved to Heath Street, Winson Green.
