BordesleyExile

master brummie
Could someone advise whether the following people were in the grocery business according to 1939 Kellys, or if not, whether they are recorded in connection with another type of business?
Joseph Samuel Wiggins & wife Fanny Wiggins
36 Wilton Rd, Sparkhill
John Bertie Wiggins & wife Annie Elizabeth Wiggins
50 Avondale Rd, Sparkhill.
I have these addresses from the electoral register.
Many thanks.
 
The only Wiggins grocers listed in the 1939 kellys is:
Wiggins W. & Son, grocers, 170 Londonderry la. Smethwick

36 Wilton road is listed a private address as Joseph S. Wiggins
50 Avondale road is listed a private address as John Wiggins

Thanks very much, Mike. It looks as though they broke with generations of family tradition. Can't think what got into them.
