Hi,
I am in North Carolina,US. Mom(Annie(nance)Beckett is from Newark,Notts and am having a difficult time trying to locate family, alive and deceased. Am awaiting info from Newark cemetary on birth/death dates of grandparents, John Edward Beckett and Lydia Brown. Does anyone have any suggestions on online sites for that area or places i can write to in Newark. Am new to this whole chat thing and genealogy search and am rather computer illiterate but thought i would be brave and give it a shot.
while searching for Newark came across post( somehow) from BrianT. about Chatham st location in newark.
Mom has a 1938 st and neighborhood directory which lists all streets and yards at that time and persons that lived there. also includes merchants.directory also includes balderton, coddington farndon, hawton kelham etc
For Brian
It states:Chatham st. from 37 Albert st.(no Thoroughfare)NE side. lists all people living there in 1938. It jumps from 11-13 because where 12 should be it says "here is Priest's yard". hope that helps.
If anyone else needs info from this directory on Newark and surrounds I will be happy to see if it is in there.
please bear with me as i haven't got the hang of this site yet.
Thanks, catwomen
