Find Ancestors

I wonder if you kind folks might be able to help me please? I am trying to locate a Hetty Evans (unmarried,) living in Birmingham in 1939. Her address given on her 2 childrens' birth certs in 1938 & 1939 is 90 Warren Hill Road. I have no idea how old Hetty was at the time. She was a domestic servant on both certs, so it's likely it won't be her family there, but thought it worth a try.
Thank you!

no number 90


89 Warren Hill Road Birmingham C.B. Warwickshire England
91 Warren Hill Road Birmingham C.B. Warwickshire England
92 Warren Hill Road Birmingham C.B. Warwickshire England

between 88 and 92

the record is closed

Thanks for looking safc. A pity, but never mind! x

Birmingham library ...or similar.. might hold old electoral lists where Hetty might be listed at that address.

Are both her children still alive? - If not, can you post their names and dates of birth please? Or at least which Quarters's they were born in?

On the 1939 register there is only one closed record at number 90- if that record is Hetty she didn't have her children with her.

In 1945 these people are listed on the electoral register living at 90 Warren Hill Road

Dea, I'm looking on behalf of one of her children. Both were adopted.
I've just checked and there is actually another address for 1938, 168 Ladywood Road, but on checking electoral register around the time, it seems to have several women living there. I suspect it might be some kind of home for unmarried mothers.
Thanks to everyone who has taken an interest x

Looks to be Salvation Army related...(mentioned in below, later The Hawthorns)

13 December 1940 - Birmingham Mail - Birmingham, West Midlands, England

the Lady Mayoress visited two of the eight nurseries in the Birmingham area, at 168, Ladywood Road, and at 395, Monument Road. She saw children up to the age of five playing happily together in a nursery...

There is this Hettie- she goes on to marry Thomas Wyper in 1941?

It's the only single Hettie/ Hetty Evans on the 1939 within the area that fits- I also checked under Staffordshire.
