I have recently seen a postcard of a group of 18 well dressed ladies on one side, with the other side reading HAUGHMOND HILL Easter Monday April 20th 1908 signed E.G.Chambers, it is addressed to E.G.Chambers The Terrace Meole Brace Shrewsbury.
Can anyone shed any light on who E.G.Chambers is and if someone else has this postcard do they know who these ladies are?
Thank you Ann
Is anyone able to look up the 1911 census to see if the family are still there.?
Sandra
Hello Sandra
The family were still living at The Terrace, Meole Brace in 1911.
