Kellys directories of Sheffield

Recommended Posts

Does anyone know how early Kelly Directories started in Sheffield? I'm trying to find out who lived at Number 14 Marion Road, Hillsborough around 1911? If the wives name is given as Florence, it may have been the home of my Uncle Walter.

I haven’t got a Kelly's for that year but according to Whites Directory 1911 --------

Marion Road - 14 Morton William. shear bender.

 

A surname would help.

 

1905 White's - Marion Road.

14 Halliwell William Arthur, (j) brick maker

16 Wright Walter, W. carter

On the 1911 census for 14 Marion Road, there is William and Elizabeth Morton

and their children. No Florence.

 

What surname are you looking for?

Yes, Morton. But now I wonder if Walter was married before he married Florence who lived with him on Manchester Road at Crosspool until his death in the 1960s and hers in the 1990s!! But then Walters mother(and my fathers) was called Emma Elizabeth!!! Wonder if she'd left their father Arthur who lived at 58 Ellerton Road??? She died in 1914.

Still on the Morton family trail Moira!!!! Thanks!!

Just thought, I believed that Walter didn't have children, certainly to Florence!! Interesting?

The "1939 Register" has a Walter and Florence E. Morton (also Florence's older sister Ann) living at 513 Manchester Road - see here. Walter evidently died aged 74 in Oct.-Dec. 1964 and Florence Edith aged 81 in Oct.-Dec. 1990.
