Thanks for the help Jess have emailed you Malc

Yep, thats still there Jess x

Small world Jess My sister Bettys first civilian home with her husband was in Tanner street nearly at the end near the gas works.

I lIve there now, know Tanner street - What other streets ? what do you want to know? jess

Thanks Jess You are probably right about some of the old streets not being there. All the stree where Grandads shop was bombed then flattened only Tanner st Survives from that bit (if its still there) Town has been renovated...Mind you I havnt been up there for nearly 20 years

1891 Think this is them 10 years Prior Ives, Edward 13 Northampton Son Duston Northamptonshire Ives, Elizabeth 35 Wrexham, North Wales Wife Duston Northamptonshire Ives, George 8 Northampton Son Duston Northamptonshire Ives, Harriet E 6 Northampton Daughter Duston Northamptonshire Ives, Thomas 34 Northampton Head Duston Northamptonshire Looks like no 22 devonshire St - not sure if that still exists Jess (going to watch corrie...will be back later)

I think Jess might have but even with your info the mystery is still there.........Trip to Northampton I think...will get there one day..bit like the London meets....LOL

Sorry, they're all Ives... did Jess look at 1901 census??? I can save the image from ancestry for you and email it if you want, send me a message with your email address in it. Brenda

Hi racing Girl does the record show Georges surname as Ives or Clayson? cheers malc

I think this is the family... Parish of Dustin, Hardingstone, Northampton THomas Ives, 34, Northampton - can't make out occupation, looks like something Finisher? Elizabeth Ives, 35, North Wales, Wrexham Edward, Son, 13, Northampton, occ look like something Hand! George, Son, 8 Northampton Harriet E, 6, Dau, Northampton Maybe someone else can help with the occupations! Brenda

They were living at 25 Moore St, Parish of kingthorpe, but just down the road from me,. Jess x
