The Gaskins

If we take what pjmburns has discovered and add in the information from https://aghs.jimdofree.com/notable-people-of-acocks-green/ , can we pencil in a provisional housing timetable? How about:
  • 1894 Married. Arthur from 375 Coventry Road, Small Heath and Georgie from Maal Green, Tysley
  • 1895 Richmond Villa, Warwick Rd, Olton
  • 1899 Fairlea/Fairleigh, 7 Victoria Rd, Acocks Green
  • 1902 Camden House, 5 Victoria Rd, Acocks Green
  • 1911 Newlyn, St Bernards Rd, Olton
  • 1921 13 Calthorpe Road, Edgbaston
  • 1924 High Street, Chipping Campden
Is it possible that they owned Calthorpe Rd and Newlyn simultaneously rather than consecutively?? Apparently jewellery cases were still marked from the Olton workshop until about 1924 but I suppose that could be because there were earlier spares left over?!
 
Arthr and Georgie are still listed on eroll at 13 Calthorpe Road up to and including 1925 but not 1926. That might be cause of when the eroll data was collected.
