Who lived there

Post by terrykenton »

Hi

Can anyone tell me how I can find out who lived at a specific property in the 1880's or maybe even have the information to hand.

My granmother was born at 4 WHITETHORN STREET, BROMLEY, EAST LONDON in May 1887. I believe it was in the parliamentary borough of Tower Hamlets in Bromley St Leonard West district.

I would love to find out the head of the household if possible.

Thanks for any help given.

A person should have an opinion on everything, It becomes tact whether you reveal that opinion or not.
