Prescott Street

Hello from Australia, from looking at posts I see that Prescott Street doesn't exist anymore, but people know where it was. Could anyone tell me if it was anywhere near Camden Street? In the 1891 census, my gt grandfather is living in Prescott Street with his parents while his wife and daughter are living in Camden Street. She is listed as a milliner.
 
hello daffcy if you go to the link that janice has posted on the previous post i have posted about 20 photos of prescott st before demolision..if you can make a post on that thread giving us your ancestors names will maybe able to post a map showing where the house was we also have a thread for camden street link below so if you make a post on that thread as well giving the names of your ancestors who lived there a map could be possible... in answer to your question camden st was 2 streets away from prescott st

Hi Lyn,

Hi Lyn,
Feel such a fool. Clicked on thread and saw lots of old posts, but have no idea how to post a new one. Please help

Go to the last post in a thread.
The next box down will be blank.
Click in it and type.
To add pictures click on "attach files"
If you get a message saying the images are too large - tell us that in the box and Lyn or I will help.
When finished click on "post reply"
Hope that makes sense.
