Birmingham Chat / Re: Effort to identify someone living at 79 Ryland Road in Edgbaston.

Have just searched Ryland road in 1911 and some of the entries are missing but may be out of order.
The entries go 74, 78 , 80.
A surname would help.

Hi, just getting the hang of this, my post was for Colin27, but fully get the etiquette/anonymity  8) 
I have posted a couple of messages I think to Colin27 - I was really wondering where some old school photos from Cromwell St school had gone that he had posted - just no longer there??

Burbury Street Board School, Hockley, Birmingham 19.........
The large building on the right and behind the school in the photo is the Lucas Great King Street Factory.
It's only by the grace of God we are able to see this pic of the school - check out the story of it's survival on the Harry Lucas School Thread: https://www.birminghamforum.co.uk/index.php?topic=12554.msg655363#msg655363

Birmingham Chat / Effort to identify someone living at 79 Ryland Road in Edgbaston.
« Last post by Brindle on July 06, 2020, 01:46:10 PM »
Hello, Does anyone know how to search the Census records for 1911 or thereabouts for the occupants living at a specific address in Birmingham? My family are trying to identify someone from between 1911 to perhaps 1921.
The address is 79 Ryland Road in Edgbaston. If it’s possible to look at a census for 1911 or 1921 or thereabouts then the person we are looking to identify may have lived at that address. Thanks for any help.

A few minutes walk north-east of the school brought you to Burbury Park, with its bandstand it could well have a been a pleasant Summer Sunday afternoon destination in its heyday, unfortunately my memory of it in the early 60s is of it being a barren dirt patch, the park is still there but I'v no idea what it looks like, it's been many decades since I was in the area.

P.S. Some members prefer to keep their I.D. confidential, for my part I try to keep my pic out of The Police Gazette.
