Hi I would really like to found out where this address is/was. I know it is somewhere just south of Stroud. The address dates from the 1920s - 1930s. I have looked at Old Maps UK, and ordered a 1901 map of the area over the internet but with no success. Does anyone happen to have access to a 1930s street map of Stroud/Lightpill?? 8) Kind Regards Richard

Richard, Wellcroft Terraces are listed on the 1881 census. Here are the buildings listed before and after them in case you can spot these on your maps Fleece Inn Bath Road Farm Cottage, Golden Cross Road Wellscroft Terrace Cypress Cottages Cypress Inn, Bath Road I can see the Fleece Inn on an old map but not the Cypress Inn. Here's a family so you can locate it on Familysearch.org Anne TACOW Head W Female 70 Wallberswick, Suffolk, England Annuitant Florence A.
