1939 Spa Hill, Upper Norwood, London S.E.19 - COMPLETED

Postby SRD » Sun Jul 24, 2016 9:40 am

On 16th April 1941 Spa Hill was hit in a bombing raid. The houses hit were 73, 75, 77 & 79. Can anyone look up the residents of those premises in 1939 please.
Possible surnames are Tyrrell, Skipp, Leach, Boyall, Fullwood, Hornby, Sellars & Street but there may be others.

Thanks.

Thanks, William Arthur Sellars died in the raid, as did Irene Emily Street aged 9, daughter of W.H. Street who married Ellen C Purkiss in 1921.

Thanks,
Geoffrey & Gladys Tyrell survived but a Mary Hornby died at No. 77.
Cecil Fullwood & Jessie Boyall died at No. 75, William Tyrell had died the year before but Sarah Tyrell survived the war, they were the parents of Geoffrey who lived at No. 77.
I don't know about the 1939 occupants of No. 73 but Edmund Leonard Deacon Grant died there (aged 84) that day.
