Wow, thanks for the fast reply, mikejee!
I suspected the renumbering was the reason, and could indeed see that a double shopfront that had been consecutive adjacent numbers (196/197) had become "even" adjacent numbers, so thank you very much for confirming it!

Hi Carol

Our Bennetts could be related, another branch of the family. The family did live in Bilston at some stage before moving to Irving and Latimer Street. There are also links to Tipton. Do you know if any of your Bennett's were Butchers or Grocers?

Thanks
Vanessa
Hi, I realise this is a very old thread but my Grandad William Bennett was a butcher and he used to have a grocer shop that was the family’s in bottom latimer.
