Elusive chip shop

Recommended Posts

I was told my grandfather John Thomas Timmins had a chip shop in Denby Street off Bramall Lane in the early 1900's.

 

He didn't have it long and so he doesn't appear on the census or the directories to my knowledge.

 

I believe chip shops were not the moneymakers that they became later.

 

The family did live at 3 Denby street and this could be the shop but I do not know for certain.

 

I have never found the address and wondered if anyone knows of the shop?

 

Any help appreciated.

TIMMINS, Thos. Beno (~, Fried Fish Dealer).

Address: 159 Infirmary Road, ~ in 1925.

Recorded in: Sheffield & Rotherham Kelly?s Directory.

Thanks for that Duffems but unfortunately it's a case of- 'Same Horse, Different Jockey'.

 

Not the same Family.
