No 5, Hamblett(?) St Tip.......... When you are viewing the image.....look above it and click on Leigh........then view the enumeration district description for the appropriate district. (In this case number 7.) If you're lucky, the writing on there will be more easily read........ Reg

Hamblett? Look at the second line up from the bottom - the chap's first name - it looks exactly the same as the street name - which is weird. Check out the others on the page - according to Ancestry - he is transcribed as Hamblett ... Jill
